If you were to walk around my neighborhood and ask residents what’s needed in their community, many will reply, “Something for our kids.” The statistics in our neighborhood are alarming. The majority of households live in poverty. Neighborhood schools are terribly under resourced to no fault of their own. The youth are often seen as the cause of many problems but they are actually victims of even bigger problems that have existed and continue to exist in our city. Even with all of this we still believe that our kids have dignity and are able to flourish!
What does it look like for students to flourish? It’s easy to overlook youth in the inner city concerning their need to grow in a healthy manner. My dream is that youth in our neighborhood will know that they are loved by the people in their neighborhood. This is seen through interpersonal relationships and simply creating an environment where they can flourish; as they not only develop physically but mentally, emotionally, educationally, and spiritually as well.
ONE HOPE's Young Leaders Society (Y.L.S.) is tailor-fitted for Baltimore youth. It is a program that includes an after school program, summer camp, tutoring, and mentorship for the youth. We walk with kids from kindergarten through graduation. And we love the fact that we get to walk with them in life. With your help we are able to provide them with resources that would lead to them being leaders who are prepared and equipped to thrive! Thank you for your support!
