Mentoring program for local youth ages 8-18

We seek to transform by rescuing gifts, releasing potential, and restoring the promise of our youth within their community. This is accomplished by instilling self-worth and empowering youth through leadership training, artistic expression, and mentorship.

Get Involved

Monthly meetings are held at New Hope Missionary Baptist Church on the third Saturday of every from month 11 a.m to 1 p.m.

The youth and leaders also participate in an annual summer camp and reunion.

Founding Principles

We mentor using the seven principles of the Nguzo Saba:

• Umoja (Unity)

• Kujichagulia (Self-Determination)

• Ujima (Collective Work and Responsibility)

• Ujamaa (Cooperative Economics)

• Nia (Purpose)

• Kummba (Creativity)

• Imani (Faith)
