Our commitment to fostering growth and empowerment is at the heart of our story, and we invite you to join us in shaping a brighter future."

We have given training and employment opportunities to over 750 young adults throughout the Tampa Bay Area.

We take immense pride in being pioneers as the first youth organization to embrace the stewardship of Cherry Harris Park, a tribute to one of our esteemed civil rights activists and voting advocates.
Our students actively engage in volunteer work, extending their support to the Willa Carson Wellness Center, Relay for Life, and various City of Clearwater events, including Latin Fest and the Jazz Festival. Additionally, they generously share their time and compassion at the North Greenwood Library and with our cherished local senior citizens.
