When Sarah Lockridge-Steckel graduated from Harvard College in 2009, she headed to Memphis, Tennessee. There, she co-founded The Collective, a nonprofit that works with schools, businesses, and community groups to provide pathways to opportunities for young people.⠀

"My belief in equity and opportunity inspired me to start The Collective in my adopted hometown of Memphis," says Lockridge-Steckel, who worked with Phillips Brooks House during her time at Harvard. "I want to see a world in which all young people have access to opportunity.”⠀
