Together with our partner Esmirna BIC, we're expanding our West Kendall community center to create a multi-generational hub of support. Your investment today builds tomorrow's possibilities.
Campaign Vision
What began in 2001 as a small afterschool program has grown into one of Miami-Dade County's most trusted youth organizations. Today, we serve
210 children daily across three locations with programs achieving an
86% literacy improvement rate and a
93.07% quality rating from The Children's Trust—placing us among the region's elite youth-serving organizations.
Yet Miami families face mounting challenges that demand comprehensive, multi-generational support. Our current facilities limit our ability to serve growing demand, leaving waitlists at all locations. Families struggle to find affordable elderly day care and accessible mental health services. Recent construction has created immediate safety concerns, requiring an urgent $75,000 concrete wall to protect our children's playground.
Construction begins May 2026. More space means more children served, more families supported, and more lives transformed. The time to act is now.
