Causes: Children & Youth, Girls Clubs
Mission: The mission of the superyou fundation is for youth to discover their most empowered selves and to tap into their potential to positively impact the world. Through writing, visual arts, and performing arts exploration, youth will learn to call upon their inner superhero and personal strength to help overcome the obstacles they face. Creating as their inner superhero, they will transform the view of themselves and the world to become master creators of power, positivity, and possibility in their everyday lives. Building connection and community, students will then team up to form "superhero leagues" with other classrooms (from other states, or possibly, the globe), to create social good missions to change the world.
