CHISELING
A MINDSET

CHISEL stands for Choosing Higher Intellect Starts Elevated Living. 

​

A Chisel is a tool used to craft some of the hardest materials, which for us, represent life's toughest challenges and uphill battles. The Chisel can be traced back to the Egyptian civilizations and has been used in all cultures to creating some of the greatest feats of mankind. 

​

Chisel was chosen as an acronym to represent this organization because of its versatility and ability to be used on some of the most detailed finished works of art. Our services will be able to span the gambit from the roughest youth to providing finishing touches on our future's brightest minds. 

​

"Service to others is the rent you pay for your room here on earth."

Muhammad Ali

Mission

CHISEL envisions our community full of healthy, emotionally whole, individuals and young adults pursuing their educational, academic, and vocational self-set goals surrounded by caring supportive adults who rally to assist and cheer on their successes.  CHISEL works with community partners and others to collectively elevate our entire community through creating opportunities in education, health, career, finance, and life success.

A Chisel is a tool used to craft the hardest materials, which for us, represent life’s toughest challenges and uphill battles.  The chisel can be traced back to Egyptian civilizations and has been used in all cultures to create some of the greatest feats, art, and structures of mankind.  It was chosen to represent our organization because of its versatility and ability to be used multiple ways on many kinds of firm and very delicate materials creating structure and beauty, like our services in the lives of those we work with.
