They Need Us...and You!
We are a 501c3 nonprofit organization empowering youths from challenging backgrounds (foster care, homeless, low income or at risk), when they need our help the most.
“We are the author of the book of our lives. We have the ability to change our story and create a better future, and thus, a better world.”- Spring Whipple
Together We Can Make Difference!
"You are one decision away from a vastly different future!"
Each day provides us with new opportunities. For the youths we help, their choices may not seem all that clear to them in seeing how they impact their long term futures. We help them to see and make those small changes today and each day forward to provide them with a brighter future.

What are we doing?
Outside of our Mentorship programs,one program we are very excited about is our “FREE TO BE!” teen duffle bag and backpack confidence and self esteem building toolkit.
Our goal is to provide 150 bags ( 75 boys/75 girls) bags which include a journal with colored pens/pencils, a gift card for Barnes & Noble or Books And More ( BAM!). For some individuals, we also provide new clothes and shoes, if needed.
