The C.H.A.N.C.E. Global Initiative was born out of the mind of Dr. Dana Carson, founder and president, who has a deep desire to see disadvantaged and unserved children have access to a healthy and prosperous future. While the Nairobi School has been in existence for 16 years, Dr. Carson acquired the school in the fall of 2016 and changed the name to The Carson Academy of Excellence and he is now providing the administrative and educational leadership for the school.

The C.H.A.N.C.E. Global Initiative profoundly believes that anyone, given proper support and opportunity can become a healthy, productive, law abiding citizen who contributes to the progression and well-being of society.

Thus, The C.H.A.N.C.E. Global Initiative was developed with a four-fold approach that is designed to lift individuals from a lower level of life to maximization of their potential. This approach is referred to as the C.U.B.E. model “Creating Unbelievable Behaviors of Elevation.” [/zozo_vc_feature_box][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row center_row=”yes” typo_style=”light” css=”.vc_custom_1485365170114{border-bottom-width: 1px !important;background-color: #333333 !important;border-bottom-color: #e1e1e1 !important;border-bottom-style: solid !important;}”][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner][zozo_vc_section_title css_animation=”right-to-left” text_align=”left” title=”The C.U.B.E. model” content_size=”14pt”]The C.U.B.E. model consists of four focal points that are symbiotically connected to produce high achieving individuals.
