Mission Statement
Our Mission To design, curate, and execute enrichment programs and community outreach to enhance the lives of fostered, adopted, and at-risk children.
Description
We have developed 3 core programming initiatives designed to empower children, encourage and develop their social skills. We host 2 annual events to support communities, "Boys to Men" and "Princess for A Day" which are designed to celebrate children and support self-worth. We also provide virtual tutoring and mentorship throughout the year via our "Tutoring for Success" Program and our "Teach Me How To" Series. We currently provide free virtual tutoring to over 300 children. These programs enforce the core values of responsibility, respect, determination and resilience. It is our goal that through these programs, we will help to provide life changing information and experiences that help offset the often challenging life experiences that these children have faced so early in their lives.
