EXCLUSIVE PROGRAMS & SERVICES

red carpet events

The "Red Carpet Events" program is a community initiative where local leaders, such as politicians, educators, and other influential figures, come together to give high fives to school students. This event is designed to celebrate and motivate students, fostering a positive and encouraging atmosphere. By engaging with students in such a fun and supportive way, the program aims to boost their confidence, strengthen community ties, and inspire students to achieve their best.

equine program

Partnering with Oddesty K & Associates, the equine program uses horses to help address mental health and behavioral concerns by providing participants with unique opportunities for healing and growth. Through structured activities and interactions with horses, participants build confidence, improve social skills, and enhance self-esteem. The program fosters emotional awareness and positive behavior while promoting trust, communication, and personal development in a supportive, hands-on environment. Horses are utilized as both therapeutic partners and tools for instilling valuable life skills in participants.

100 doors

The program brings together community volunteers and children for a day of service focused on beautifying the neighborhood. Volunteers and kids work together to paint the front doors of selected homes, enhancing the appearance of the community. This initiative aims to promote pride in the environment, encourage civic responsibility, and strengthen community bonds, while also teaching children the importance of caring for their surroundings and contributing to positive change.
