About Silicon Valley Future Stars Program

Silicon Valley Future Stars program is an integrated and innovative afterschool program that focuses on youth cultural awareness and educational enrichment programs that include career training in technology, broadcasting and performing arts. The program is operated by Silicon Valley African Productions (SVAP,) a non-profit San Jose based organization. We provide high quality opportunities for local underserved youth to set highly challenging goals and to explore multiple avenues to personal and professional success imbedded in academic/civic commitment incentive, positive media outlets/spotlights, and high paying jobs paving a brighter future for the participants. The Future Stars program is to open to all middle and high school students in the Silicon Valley of California. However, the highest priority is given to the underserved, disadvantaged lower income, and lower achieving middle and high school students, who are at risk of dropping out of school.  For more information feel free to contact us Molly Uzoh by e-mail at molly.uzoh@svap.org or by phone at 408-268-8400 or Rufus H.
