A couple of kind folks wanted to help some kids in the city share in some life changing opportunities. As a State Farm Agent for over thirty years, John Mouw knows a few things about protecting and helping people. John and his wife Janice have been helping the community through their kindness and generosity for a long time. John passed on the information about a big opportunity to share in a grant from State Farm. Five local mentoring organizations decided to work together as a team to help some young men escape the poverty, segregation and violence of the inner city. Thanks John and Janice for all you do, we appreciate you! And don't forget to vote! https://apps.facebook.com/sf_neighbor_assist/
What will your vote do?
BALLERS BREAKFAST will
create hope beyond the violent streets. Through a weekend mentoring and
athletic program, the Hope Center will attract young men from the violent
neighborhoods of Buffalo .
The initial program will run over the summer as an open basketball league to be
played outdoors (indoors due to inclement weather.) Every Saturday morning will
begin with breakfast and a mentoring session. The power of this program lies in
the number of collaborating organizations collectively combining their
strengths to provide hope and a future for young men who are at-risk of
violence. After the morning session that will last approximately 2 hours, the
young men will play ball for about 4 hours. The league will follow strict
adherence to the code of conduct used in high school sports. Funds would be
used to purchase portable rims and backboards, training materials, facility
maintenance, and youth program needs.
How much of a lasting impact on your community will your cause have?
Collaboration between community groups is a model of
teamwork that will impact a city. Young people in gangs who fight turf wars
against each other have witnessed the acrimony between politicians, government
agencies and community organizations. Urban Christian
