About Me |
|
| The Stand Project was formed to provide all people, specifically, the younger generation a safe place to turn rather than the streets, where they can learn and grow into productive citizens. By providing education tools, such as book drives, reading clinics, after school programs and computer workshops, The Stand Project will reinforce the value of education and promote mental growth and well being. The Stand Project will provide youth mentoring programs and youth motivational speakers to serve as a guide for raising self awareness and self esteem. It is The Stand Project’s belief that providing the right combination of education, self worth and a reinforcement of moral values will enable today’s youth to compete in an ever evolving society. In addition, The Stand Project understands that lack of healthcare is a growing concern among the younger generation. As such, we will provide programs such as free HIV testing, blood drives and immunization drives to ensure the youth get the healthcare they not only deserve, but require. The Stand Project stands by their mantra “Bringing back love, faith and hope”, and it is our belief that by providing the aforementioned services, we can do just that. | |
