Fans 4 L.I.F.E., Inc. Details
Fans 4 L.I.F.E., Inc. (Low Income Families Excel) is a non-profit organization which seeks to be a comprehensive resource for low income families. Resources offered to the families will target both individuals and the family as a whole unit. By building up families we aim to improve the community and give each family an equal opportunity to become successful, productive, and self-sufficient. We will empower the family through various programs, classes, seminars, and workshops. Our mission is to strengthen the family unit of at risk families in low income communities while meeting their social, physical, and academic needs. Our pilot program, School Based Mentoring, will focus on the child initially and incorporate the family in the development of that student through family/team building events and continuos support for both the match and the parents. We aim for our students to become confident, optimistic about their future, and productive. We will achieve this goal through research driven practices that help students realize their potential, set goals, and developing strategies to attain those goals. Fans 4 L.I.F.E., Inc. will seek donations of "game gear" from professional and collegiate athletic teams and host silent auction events for the fans. The proceeds from these auctions, in addition to personal and corporate donations, and grants will be used to build the resources for our families.
