Our Mission
We strive to provide as many of our youth within the Richmond area communities as possible with opportunities that promote their growth and an environment that they can not only flourish in but feel connected with. We want to be a pillar for development in our youth by providing educational support along with tangible skills that may not be covered in the average school system’s curriculum. We hope that our commitment to servicing our communities by simply being present and always being willing to extend a helping hand will help create a the type of environment that we, the Richmond area, can all be proud of.
" When we go into the community and see the youth it just reminds you of yourself as a kid. Personally, I can put myself in their shoes because I have a similar background as most of them. You see alot of the same obstacles that were put in front of you. So I feel like it’s our duty to reach out to them, just as someone reached out and helped me. We are just continuing the cycle.”
