In the past, if an individual dropped out of high school and wanted to earn their diploma later in life, they enrolled in night school. Today, because of drastic cuts in funding, night school is virtually nonexistent. And while other institutions offer classes to earn a high school diploma, they often come with a hefty price tag. This has left many adults 18 years and older who have left traditional secondary education with nowhere else to turn. That is until the opening of The Helms Academy, powered by Goodwill Industries of Southern NJ & Philadelphia and its collegiate partners. By making an investment in The Helms Academy, you help individuals to aspire, advance and achieve success in today’s ever-evolving competitive workforce–earning a guaranteed return on your investment (ROI)

The Helms Academy helped me realize that if you surround yourself with the right people and work hard, you can do whatever you set your mind to. I am well on my way now.
