Mission Statement
Our mission is to help build a foundation of knowledge, life skills, and cultural awareness that will promote mental, physical, social, and emotional growth within the lives of our youth, by increasing graduation rates and college readiness, literacy, and cultural awareness; while promoting high self-esteem and healthy behaviors, in order to build a solid community of successful leaders, and well-rounded individuals for generations to come.
Description
ur organization is catered to the mental, physical, social and emotional well being of our youth. Our goal is to reach our youth or as we like to call them "DREAMERS" early on in order to help them create a solid foundation for their future.
The organization is structured to assist our DREAMERS at the most important times in their lives, the time when the choices they make can ultimately affect them for life. We will assist our DREAMERS during K-12, college, and after college when they are making the transition into adulthood and self-sufficiency. We work with all kids and teens ages 5-18, single-mother 13-25, and have a primary focus on youth in underserved communities.
Our DREAM mentoring program includes: educational, career, financial and healthy behavior support to all DREAMERS. We also offer cultural immersion to ensure a well-rounded program. Our ultimate goal is to give our DREAMERS the knowledge, skills, and empowerment they need to succeed, and equip them with the ability to use what they have received in a positive way.
We work on the pay it forward concept, therefore we ask that all DREAMERS volunteer to Move It Forward, to help other DREAMERS reach their DREAMS for generations to come. This structure will ensure generations of sustainability and successful leaders.
