Let's Put Our Future First!
Our mission is to create opportunities for our youth to have real success in life while building and supporting our communities and schools. To establish genuine & sustainable change, we promise to always put our future, our children, first!
About Us
Brought together by the tragic loss of our friend and student Maurice Lewis, our team consists of individuals who share the belief that we must put our children, our future, first. We are normal people, mothers and fathers, sisters and brothers, wives and husbands, educators and community leaders, who understand that we must act now if we want to create lasting change for our future. We all have different backgrounds, life experiences, professions, hobbies, views, and more. Our journeys give us unique perspective to help our communities, schools, and organizations grow and thrive. Let us help you!
