2025 - 2026 Student Membership Application

Description

Gentlemen’s Quest of Tampa Inc. is a community based 501c3 organization dedicated to expanding opportunities and support for students in the Tampa Bay area. The program is dedicated to helping our participants realize their full potential as students, make positive choices regarding their academics and behavior, and equip them with the skills necessary to become productive citizens after they graduate.

Through structured activities, the youth learn from their mentors, their peers, and themselves. They are given the tools to build their intellectual, emotional, and relational capacity and construct an identity based on respect, accountability, and responsibility so they can embark on the path to manhood unfettered. The students engage in weekly experiences that result in enhanced relationships, increased school performance, strengthened family connections, and positive contributions to society.

To be active in the program, students must be able to attend our weekly sessions on Wednesday nights. Students may be excused on Wednesdays if they are active in a sport. The sport must be in season. On Wednesdays, we will provide academic support (tutoring), monitor their academics and behavior in school, facilitate life skills sessions, explore various colleges and careers, and serve a full meal. Periodically, we will offer community service projects, college tours, leadership retreats, etc on non-school days to also help prepare the student for life.

We will only accept 25 high school male students each year. Once we are full, your student’s name will be placed on the waiting list. The waiting list will not roll over to the new school year. However, if a student is dismissed from the program for any reason, a new student from the waiting list will be added.
