A Village
for Every Child is the flagship program of .
Our mission is to provide an alternative solution to the
problem of leveling the academic playing field between
privileged and underprivileged students. Each year there
are thousands of disadvantaged students participating
in youth programs and receiving a type of nurturing that
effectively supplements their low-income lifestyles. Unfortunately
for each child lucky enough to walk through the doors
of supplemental education, there are countless others
unaware that such doors exist. Beyond advocating for more
programs, we need to improve community awareness and spread
the word about the programs that exist.
Our initiatives include:
A
Million and One Programs:
An online resource aimed at promoting over a
million community outreach programs, aiming
to reach its goal through the involvement of
individuals who submit information about existing
programs within their communities.
Gift Givers: Philanthropists and youth advocates
are encouraged to become an
donor by identifying local churches, schools,
and community groups that could benefit from
the
resource guide and donating
books or Awareness Material (postcards, flyers,
etc.) to young people within that organization.
