    Founded in 2006, College Bound Opportunities (CBO) was formed by a small group of individuals committed to education who learned of the obstacles facing high achieving but under-resourced students within the ten communities in District 113 (Deerfield High School and Highland Park High School) and District 115 (Lake Forest High School). Recognized as some of the wealthiest communities in the Chicago area, few people recognize that a need exists. But more than 450 high school students in these communities are identified as low-income by the State of Illinois.

Every high school student who wants to attend college should have that opportunity.

But the pressures facing our planet and its people are too important for us to compromise.

But the pressures facing our planet and its people are too important for us to compromise.

    We are members of Friends of the Earth International, a global network representing more than two million activists in 75 different countries. In the United States, we advocate in the halls of Congress, in state capitals, and with community groups around the country. With offices in Washington, D.C., and Berkeley, CA, and members in all 50 states, we urge policymakers to defend the environment and work towards a healthy environment for all people. - See more at: http://www.foe.org/about-us#sthash.fnHkEuhL.dpuf
