What We Do

✅ Metro Kids —Trust Building and Personalized Support- Our flagship ministry engages over 2,000 children weekly through a multifaceted approach that includes personal home visits, after-school programs, and a Saturday bus ministry. These initiatives are designed to provide consistent support and mentorship, fostering positive relationships and addressing the unique needs of each child.
✅ DMY — Youth Enrichment Program - Dedicated to fostering holistic development in underserved youth by integrating literacy, STEM education, healthy nutrition, and leadership training. We aim to bridge opportunity gaps and empower the next generation of leaders to become cycle-breakers. These young men and women become our core volunteers and are instrumental to our growth.
✅ Practical Needs — Community Stabilization and Basic Needs Support - We provide basic groceries for any family in need that lives in the neighborhoods we serve. We also distribute clothing, coats, and household goods as needed.
✅ Seasonal Outreach — Youth development programming, Educational Equity Outreach, Holiday Assistance Programs, and Emotional Belonging - From summer camp, school supplies, turkey giveaways, toys for Christmas, to a birthday gift; we reach our communities on a year-round basis.
