We will have various youth workshops that will be facilitated by our partners to discuss topics such as: financial literacy, bullying, healthy eating, and other valuable workshops.
TEAM (Together Everyone Achieves More) is a non-profit organization that focuses on enriching the lives of under priviledge youth in Detroit. Our focus is to teach the youth valuable life skills through hands on activities, physical education, healthy eating, financial literacy, bullying, and the importance of having good hygiene. We are starting a youth summer program where we meet with the kids once a week, for three hours, over a course of 4 weeks and we will cover different topics each week.
We will raise funds by utilizing social media, participating in community meeting, attending various community events and visiting churches.
We have noticed that our youth, who do not have the means to attend a summer camp or sports league, will sometimes participate in negative activities because they are bored. We want to keep the youth engaged while they are out of school and they will be able to learn valuable life skills that are not taught in the classroom. In Detroit, our youth are getting killed at an unbelievable rate and we want to start a program to help put positivity back in the neighborhoods.
