We are looking for a devoted male confidant who will guide a young male scholar to become a successful man for his community. Make a commitment to impact and influence the life of a young man. Boys Hope Girls Hope of Kansas City provides a stable home, nurturing care and academic scholarship to bright and motivated boys from challenging circumstances. Our scholars come to us from a variety of adverse situations--poverty, homelessness, neighborhood violence or severe family stress--but they still have the courage and the drive to strive for their dreams. Please contact Deanna Ramos at dramos@bhgh.org for more information.

Mission Statement
Boys Hope Girls Hope of Kansas City nurtures and guides motivated young people in need to become well-educated, career-ready men for others.
Description
Boys come to live in our family-like home as early as 5th grade and remain part of our program through college graduation. When a boy becomes a scholar in our program, he enrolls with one of our college preparatory educational partners. We supplement their education with a rigorous academic program outside of school, along with life coaching, health and wellness services, college selection, admission, and persistence, and career exploration. At this time we serve boys only, but we plan to open a home for girls in the next five years.
There are so many ways to volunteer with us, and we hope you will join us in coming alongside motivated youth in need as they become well-educated, career-ready men for others.
