Mission and Program Overview

Mission

Service organization for local community supporting youth activities

Program Services

DescriptionGrantsExpenses
The organization provides financial support to community organizations that serve youth and their families. This support can include a wide range of activities including scholarships to participation in youth sports programs, library services, playgrounds, school field trip programs to museums or musical events and meeting basic youth and family needs for underpresented populations. Support is provided to those community organizations that reach the most youth such as a sports program to provide 15-20 scholarships to playgrounds that may support thousands of youth. Very conservatively, organization support could impact 1000 youth per year$35,260$0
