Mission Statement

Our mission is to enrich the lives of the underprivileged and most vulnerable or underserved citizens who need an opportunity to thrive. We will provide services and resources to give others better opportunities to become educated, self-sufficient, responsible leaders, and serve their community with love, honor, and respect.

Description

While our organization has only been up and running for a year, we have been able to assist up to 10 families with Christmas gifts, two families with beds, and a significant amount of children in our "Krafts for Kids Program". The "Krafts for Kids program" was originally designed to enable children to be able to thrive during crisis such as the pandemic. We also provide support for remote learning up to the 12th grade by offering tutoring, basic computer lessons, and promoting good mental health practices with fun activities with incentives and prize giveaways. Starting February we had added educational software that enables our participants to learn by song in subjects such as reading, basic & advanced math, Spanish, and more. This is just the tip of the iceberg as we search daily to see how we can make a bigger impact in our community. We also do homeless feedings as an outreach.
