“AFTER SCHOOL TIME” PROGRAM
LET THE KIDS GROW addresses the needs of the whole child through youth development, academic, nutrition, performing arts, medical and family programs. We offer a safe haven and an educational experience for kids ages 4-18 during the often unsupervised hours after school and during the summer, what we call “afterschool time.”
Our programs promote healthy relationships, provide valuable life experiences through performing arts, film, photography, field trips and strengthen families through activities that encourage family education and togetherness. Our goal is to help kids and their families break negative cycles, have the power of vision and to follow their dreams.
LET THE KIDS GROW Experience
Consider Michael: He’s 9 years old, Hispanic and lives in a low-income rental home with his four siblings and his single mother who works two jobs and makes less than $19,000 a year. Before LET THE KIDS GROW started a program at his school, Michael would usually hang around the community streets with nowhere to go becoming a victim to peer pressure, gangs and drugs. Today, he has a place he can count on, a safe haven full of love, guidance, positivity and a sense of purpose in life. This where LET THE KIDS GROW truly makes a difference.
LET THE KIDS GROW programs are results-based and focused on giving youth the opportunity to grow and develop a positive future.
