Davin McKinney

“On Point for College changed my life forever.”

Growing up, Davin wasn’t the greatest student. “I wasn’t the type of kid to get all A’s and B’s,” he said. “My father wasn’t in my life and my mother loved us and encouraged us, but there were so many of us and not enough of her to go around.”

Davin credits On Point with helping him enroll in college and encouraging him to take his school work seriously. In 2015, he graduated with an associate degree from Alfred State University with a 3.77 grade-point average.

Throughout his journey, On Point helped with clothing, food, college visits, and transportation to and from college. When Davin had trouble obtaining his high school transcripts, On Point stepped in and helped him solve the problem. While Davin’s dream is to play football in the NFL, his plan is to go to school for special education and become a teacher.
