Addressing the Issues

The shadow of COVID-19 looms over our students and the community has come together to bring the necessary healing. We offer everyone the opportunity to make a difference in the lives of our students. We don't look to anyone but ourselves to be the difference between our collective success or failure.

The school absenteeism rate has been more than four times higher than in the two years before the pandemic.

Virginia sees an increase in gang involvement in every region.

COVID has caused student attendance to fall.

As we move toward better outcomes in attendance we are investing in our future.

Rewarding attendance helps keeps the community humming along with students in class and learning. If you can contribute towards our efforts to keep students in school, we would love to add you as a sponsor.

Let's get our there!!

Students who are unable to be successful members of society tpically miss out on the arts and cultural institutions many enjoy.

We hope to foster that love for the arts early and encourage students to visit our cultural institutions and participate in the art world.

Your support allows us to expose more students to the arts and potentially develop our next budding artists.

Exploring the area is fun and we want our students to explore the community socialize and have some fun.

Our field trips are intellectually stimulating and generally a good time. We partner with local businesses who provide these opportunities and are thankful for their support.

Our program is reborn in our local churches. For many years the church has been at the forefront of forming thriving communities. Tackling the education, health and spiritual needs of the community our churches have historically paved the way for a functioning society. We are thankful for those churches who work with us to keep the Sunday School Movement alive and well today.

COVID caused a decrease in church attendance and our program seeks to correct this problem. A rise in mental health issues and the trials of life can be met head on when the church body steps in with additional support and care of its communities youth.

The Correction

The Work: Finding our Lost Sheep

Our partners encourage community service, camaraderie, the arts and at the same time reduce crime and gun violence. When our youth can form meaningful rewarding relationships with others there is less crime and violence plaguing our communities.

We partner with local businesses, non-profits, churches and the community at large to support our next generation.

We reward our honor students and work to ensure their efforts are recognized.

We believe everyone can make a difference in young person's life if they are willing to try.

When our students enter the work force, we want them to have experienced the love of community outreach and support the next generation our museums and the arts.
