Company History
The 1Eighty Group, Inc. was founded in 2009 by a Duval County Public School teacher and a well-rounded banking industry expert, both with over 20 years of experience. The business was birthed out of its passion to empower disadvantaged youth with the knowledge and tools required to be competitive in today’s economy. Initially, they provided weekly empowerment sessions to local church youth groups and quickly expanded to offering Tutoring, College Preparation, Financial Literacy, and Workforce Readiness services to youth and adults throughout the community regardless of race, color, ancestry, religion, sex, national origin, sexual orientation, age, citizenship, marital status, disability, gender identity or Veteran status.
