How Does Our Organization Work?

We partner with churches, civic organizations, and businesses to provide life skills classes, mentors, and budget counselors to impoverished families within small-group settings.  The impoverished participants and their volunteers attend these classes weekly for 14 months, also doing activities and assignments with their mentors which build supportive, encouraging relationships while practically applying lessons taught.  Even outside the classes, mentors help our impoverished participants solve life’s problems by bringing their common sense and wisdom to provide guidance, support, and accountability.
