Our mission is to create pathways for economic stability, family growth, and positive youth development through hands-on programs and meaningful work opportunities. We provide employment opportunities that allow parents and returning citizens to earn extra income by working at local NFL and NBA events through our concession stand partnerships. These opportunities not only provide immediate financial relief but also help participants build teamwork, accountability, and leadership skills. During the summer, we operate a free youth enrichment camp that offers safe, engaging, and educational childcare for families in need. Campers participate in weekly field trips that expose them to arts, culture, and experiences they might not otherwise be able to afford. The camp also focuses on life skills, etiquette, and personal development. In addition, Growth is Life Foundation offers mentorship and wraparound services for at-risk and justice-involved youth. Through counseling, skill-building, and mentorship, we help young people break cycles of incarceration and discover their potential. Our unique outdoor survival and life skills programs—including fishing, archery, and basic self-sufficiency training—equip urban families with practical tools for resilience, safety, and self-reliance. At Growth is Life Foundation, we believe in second chances, strong families, and the power of community to transform lives. Read More...
