Mentoring Through Athletics

We are trying to save the youth that gets lost in the system through the No Child Left Behind Act. We work with at risk youth to improve their grades so they can graduate middle school and move onto a high school as opposed to a continuation high school. We also strive to promote healthy lifestyles through exercise. A lot of students come from low income families and single parent households, so we like to maintain a positive approach to bettering their attitudes and their outlook on the importance of education.

Be a Hero

We wanted to do a video for youth groups to show the side effects of leaving others out along with depression, suicide, cutting, smoking, and drinking.

Relay for Life

We are raising money so that cancer researchers can have all the means to find a cure. This is a nation-wide organization, and my family created a team to help contribute to this cause.

Prevention of Drinking and Smoking

There is a severe problem in America with people who are alchoholics and/or addicted to smoking or some other form of tobacco. I think that a Bible verse should be on the bottles/cans of alchoholic beverages and on cigarette/tobacco boxes.

Healthy Cook Book

I am trying to get rid of obesity. I see more people over weight and not eating healthy.

Let's Have a Happy Holiday: Help us be Santa this year!

Remember what it was like the first time you were away from your family? Many new immigrants come to this country alone, without family and friends. The holidays are a time when they are especially reminded of being so far away from home.

Victory Junction Fundraiser

I am a Senior at Harlem High School in Harlem, Ga. This Victory Junction Fundraiser is my senior project. I am trying to raise $2,000 dollars to send a chronically ill child to Victory Junction Camp.

Therapeutic Riding Changing the Lives of the Disabled

The lack of proper ways to educate and influence disabled people, especially children. Therapeutic riding encompases multiple aspects of therapy for any physical or mental disability. From blindness to multiple sclerosis to autism and downs syndrome, riding a horse can teach so much. Balance, coordination, strength, confidence, cause and effect, action and reaction, reading, colors, counting, listening skills, following directions, trusting humans and animals, self-acceptance, and adjusting to a new and sometimes scary situation are all things that can be learned from riding a horse.
