Fresh Youth Initiatives, Inc.
Mission:
FYI exists because young people in our neighborhood need safe, structured, positive activities in the non-school hours. FYI approaches youth as potential resources (not as problems or clients) in meeting community needs, and supports a youth-centered approach in helping youth take positive action. For instance, FYI runs the Helping Hands Food Bank (feeding 200 families each month), which is the brainchild of a 16 year-old FYIer. Other youth-led service projects include making sleeping bags for homeless individuals, painting the apartments of seniors, cleaning local parks, and running a mobile clothing bank.
