Mission Statement
Our Mission is to show youth and children who they are beyond their neighborhoods. We do this be leading experiential trips in to the arts, sciences and the outdoors.
Description
Weekend-Adventures is a fiscally sponsor program of the Social Good Fund since 2018. We serve youth and children in grades 3rd through 12th. Our program is unique as we are not stationary. Our program is designed to take youth out of the neighborhood and into places and spaces that have historically been unavailable to them.
We lead 4 ten-week programs for up to 30 youth per year. We explore the arts, sciences and the outdoors. We offer our program free of charge to families as we understand the complexities of living in poverty. More than 90% of our family's receive some form of government assistance and or free or reduce cost lunch at school.
Our families are loving people, filled with all the hopes and dreams for their children as every parent has. It is a pleasure working with and serving them.
