Goals and Philosophy: EEXCEL's goal, Educational EXcellence for Children with Environmental Limitations, is to provide affordable housing to families and provide educational resources to children through the EEXCEL tutorial program. EEXCEL, was founded in 1988 on the belief that the home environment, parents and schools need to provide a supporting network for a child's education to be successful. The frequent and unfortunate reality is that few homes offer the environment, or possess the educational resources, particularly computers in low-income families, to adequately support a child's education. EEXCEL fills this void by delivering its live audio-video-data tutorial program in the safety and convenience of the home via the Internet.

The philosophy of EEXCEL is that education is the greatest factor in determining a Student's future capability as an adult. Education must first be stimulated in the home before the student will be an effective student. By providing educational resources and tutoring, children have the support they need to be effective Students.
