WELCOME TO AWARENESS USA
Empowering underprivileged students to realize the American dream
We offer free academic tutoring and life skills building to disadvantaged students.
Mentors with Heart
Awareness USA teachers and tutors strive to build positive long-term relationships with students and families who need it most.
Did you have a teacher in your life who inspired you and made you feel important? Every child deserves a chance for academic success, but the most meaningful connections are those made with the heart. At Awareness USA, we believe in lifting the spirit of the whole child. In addition to basic homework help, we offer students an opportunity to be heard and valued, long-term guidance with career and college application decisions, and monthly opportunities for mentoring, networking and community-building.
Nearly 12 million children in the U.S. live in poverty, many lacking access to education, guidance, and basic resources needed to succeed.
Our Mission
Connect underserved students with academic support and life skills to help them succeed in school, career, and life.
Our Vision
Empower underprivileged students across Tampa Bay to achieve their full potential through education and opportunity.

Testimonials
Awareness USA has provided multiple services to me and my two girls including homework and tutoring at a time when my life was experiencing chaos. I was able to set up daily homework and tutoring sessions via zoom. I have seen significant improvement in grades and social interaction with my girls as they work towards goals initiated with Awareness USA. For all the tutors that have worked with my girls, thanks for your dedication and patience, my girls love you! I look forward to continued success with your organization.

During my time as a tutor at Awareness USA, I have always had the opportunity to grow and confront situations I otherwise would’ve never experienced. Due to the variety of curriculums I could be expected to help a student on, my own strengths and weaknesses in my academics have been fortified. Through this tutoring program, I’m able to meet many different students that have all been nothing short of amazing. I’m excited to see this organization grow and reach out to more students.

Homework Help Tutor
I learned so much from the Joy trainings given by Dr. Bikkasani. Lessons in listening fully and without judgement as well as learning to be happy and appreciative.

I was privileged to be able to attend Dr. Bikkisani’s workshop which has helped me, not only in my personal life, but my professional life as well. In these uncertain times, we now more than ever, need to remain calm and reach out to those in need. His workshop not only teaches us but inspires us to do so. And his charity, wow, not only helping those in need, teaching and inspiring the children who are our future. Imagine, one child helping another, and then another and so on, the butterfly affect. Thank you Dr. Bikkisani, this world is a better place with you in it.
