Power Company Kids Club
~An organization that is changing lives one child at a time in the 7th most violent city in America.
The Power Company Kids Club in Pontiac, Michigan is a faith based non-profit that seeks to promote the emotional, physical, spiritual and social well-being of at-risk children of our inner cities.
My husband and I have been supporting
Power Company Kids Club for several years both financially and through volunteering. In the summer I am blessed daily to run the kitchen. Over 100 smiling faces receive breakfast and lunch prepared by many volunteers.
During the school year, each Saturday 100's of children are bused to their facility. They participate in songs, Nickelodeon style games, and a time of directional teaching...stay in school, say no to drugs, eliminate racism.
During the week each child is visited by his or her bus captain. A time to further build relationships with the children and families.
They take their Character Building Assemblies to the schools to further promote integrity, respect and kindness.
In the summer, Leadership Academy. Focus on high-energy, interactive leadership enrichment courses, sports, field trips plus 2 meals. Also in the summer, Power Company in the Hood. The Saturday program is taken to several neighborhood parks.
College Scholarships. Team assistants who maintain necessary requirements are eligible to receive up to $7000 in college scholarships from PCKC.
Taking it to Detroit. This past summer, PCKC took to the streets of the Brightmoor area. 94% of the children live below the poverty line. They are innocent victims of generational poverty and despair. They are hungry, hopeless, exposed to violence, gangs and drugs.
Project Christmas Joy. This year they will distribute over 3,000 gifts to children in Pontiac and Detroit. For many, the only gift they may receive.
We have seen the fruits of their labor.
Please join me in supporting this very worthy organization so that they can continue to reach all of the children.....
