Words can’t explain the good times my children have attending events hosted by Visions of Minds. We look forward to the trunk or treat this weekend!
I’ve had the pleasure of attending multiple events supported by Visions of the Minds Inc., and each one has been a fantastic experience. The events, donated by various generous partners, have been impactful and my family and I have enjoyed every bit of it. Special recognition goes to Ms. Canei our contact, whose professionalism and warmth have made every interaction seamless and enjoyable. I’m truly grateful for the opportunities and look forward to future events!
I’m truly grateful for Ms. Canei and her non profit Visions Of The Minds. I help raise my 7 nieces and nephews as well as my son, it’s difficult financially to be able to take them out to enjoy what other children get to experience. With the help of her non profit she’s help put the biggest smiles on their faces. They have long lasting memories. They still talk about the Universal Soul Circus and Disney on Ice, thank you for being a blessing to our family.
Amazing program! I’m grateful for Canei and everything that they do for the community! From shoes, socks, shows, love and smiles this program supplied it all for my school!
Visions of the Minds has helped me and my family many times when I was in need . They are very passionate on what they do do. They make the world a better place for you and your kids. They made my daughters Christmas bc I was sick with Covid and couldn’t get out . Great safe family events for our Community..
Ms. CiCi is one of the best in our community. She goes above and beyond to assist families and kids with various opportunities. This is one of the best nonprofit organizations that I have came across.
I appreciate Visions Of The Minds and Ms.CiCi because of her my son and daughter had a blast when they attended Disney on ice , my son sung his heart out when all his favorite Disney characters came rolling out on the ice . Thanks a bunch CiCi
Thank you, visions of the mind for always thinking of the community every year. I know that I don’t have to worry about school supplies because yall always help. I have 9 grand kids, so can imagine the great impact this has with my family.
Working with visions of the mind has really changed my life and my family. I have been able to take my family to experience things that we never would have been able to experience without the help of visions of the mind Inc. Thank you for helping me create memories with my family
I am so grateful for VOTM. They really care about the interests of the youth they serve. VOTM was able to get my son enrolled with Code Wiz in Lawrenceville for 3 months, after he expressed a love for gaming. With their support, we were able to have him there for almost a year. My son got heavily involved with the robotics team at his school and will continue to do so in middle school, thanks to Ms. CiCi and VOTM!
My family and I had such a great time with Visions of the Minds and Ms. Cici at the Atlanta Hawks game. This was our first time being invited out to one of the basketball game events and the kids and myself had a blast. I had heard of all the great things Ms. Cici and Visions of the Minds were doing in the community through my sister and I am glad we were introduced to them. Very sweet and loving people who you can tell really has a heart for the people. That was my family first time attending a professional game and had do much fun and look forward to more events held for the community to give our children something positive to do and look forward to. Thanks again for all you do Ms. Cici and Visions of the Minds!!!

Ms. Cici and Visions of the Minds has been a total blessing for my family and I. We have attended a couple of events and it is a place where I can truly say we have felt accepted, loved, and welcomed. I am so thankful for everything they have done for my family. They are always hosting something to get everyone involved especially the kids and we have a blast every time. Some of the things are a first-time experience for us that we will never forget. Thanks again.

They have truly been a blessing to all they come in contact with including me and my 5 children!! I'm amazed at all they for their community and for the young minds they encounter!! Truly a organization of doing!!
This organization is great! They offer several opportunities for families that may not be able to participate in without their help. The ladies who run the organization are sweet, kind, and want the best for families.
Ms.Cici and Visions Of The Minds Inc has helped me and my family in a multitude of ways. From being a shoulder to lean on or helping when we need most. I grew extremely well because of the great influence of the program. There is no other place I would rather be.
Visions of the minds is an incredible nonprofit helping urban youth in the metro Atlanta as well as the outskirts of the city.Ms.Ross is an activist outstanding organizer as well as leader of this nonprofit that’s growing by the years.I’m always pleased to assist in any way when possible for the children are our Future.
Where do I start. I met Ms.Canei when I was 5 yours old and at the age of 25 I still love her more than my life. She was the bestest caregiver and the greatest friend. Her love for children is like no other. She made sure that I was well fed and comfortable. You can guarantee that being with Ms.Canei, FUN IS MANDATORY. Everyday is a learning day with her. I used to have so much fun I didn’t even notice that I was learning. It felt good Having something great to tell my mom after spending the weekends with her. My mom loved how much she cares for kids and my she fell in love with her. Every weekend I was at Ms.Canei house having a ball. I trust her with my life and she the best God mom anybody can ask for. I love you with all my heart ♥️ ♥️♥️. Truly a Gods gift from heaven.
This is a family-centered organization, not simply another one. My time here was incredible; I made a ton of new friends and family, and, in all honesty, it was one of the best experiences of my life. connecting with one another and meeting new folks. Taught me a lot about becoming an adult and how to carry myself in public.
my name is kamiyah . first i would like to start off by thanking all the adults for having me and inviting me to activities ! it’s really fun great teams . fun experience .
As a high school senior in search of financial assistance for college, I eagerly applied for Rikkila’s "Love of Excellence Scholarship." After a welcoming and friendly interview, I developed a bond with the organization and was honored by an invitation to a walk for mental health and funds and supplies for my furthered education. Not only did they offer me material support, but Visions of the Minds has become a personal emotional support and inspiration for me to grow in my professional development and to give back to others.
VOTM is a wonderful organization who is, and has done, great things for the community. I received a scholarship from VOTM, which has tremendously helped me achieve my dreams of attending college. Not only have they helped me achieve my dreams, but they also help many other children as well. I’m so grateful for Visions of the Mind!
This nonprofit is one of a kind. They’re always giving back to the community and bringing families closer together with their events.

Good afternoon. I would like to take this time out to give Miss CiCi and Visions of The Minds a big thank you for all that they do for the kids, families, and the community
I have been partnering with Visions of the Minds since June, 2018. It is the most well-run organization that gives 110% to the youth they support. They take advantage of every opportunity to expose the youth in their program. They also are make sure that the youth's basic needs are met and drive 30+ miles each week to pick up food so the youth can bring it home to their family. Bravo!!
I am very grateful for you guys because when it comes to the children you make sure that they get a good experience and you also do a lot for them as far as making sure they have Christmas and making sure that every holiday is enjoyable and I am very grateful for this as a parents
Great organization. I have known the owner for quite some time. They are always helping in the community and having holiday activities
I want to 1st thank this immaculate woman that has blessed me and my family over and over and over again with many opportunities. If “I’m gonna make it happen” was a person it would definitely be CICI and her beautiful mother Ms. Josie. These two women go above and beyond to put a smile on anybody’s face from delivering pizza’s to giving out backpacks to making sure that families are able to go to shows that they wouldn’t be able to afford or shows that us as a black community wouldn’t even think about going to. There’s not enough of thanks in this world that I can give to this organization! You are real life blessing

Always showing love and care to us and the whole community. They are great role models in how we should love and help out one another. They always keep my family up-to- date on current and upcoming events and I am so grateful for that. I feel like this is the #1 organization out here today that strive to commit/help out the people and the community In every way they can. Very sweet and beautiful spirited women who I have came in contact with that has blessed my life to the fullest. Keep up the great work and continue to make the change in the community.

Visions of the minds is one of the best organizations to date. The way they put their all into giving back to the community is amazing. I love giving my time as needed
As both a volunteer for & recipient of support from, Visions of the Minds. I say with conviction that this is an excellent organization. There's a family vibe, a certain welcoming warmth at V.O.T.M. The staff have a
wonderful energy about them. At V.O.T.M, they treat you with Respect & Purpose. The kind that erases any doubts or shames. You'll find yourself having so much fun that it'll make you want to get involved. Not just for your own purpose, but for others as well. The children are always happy & smiling. Which is quite contagious! I have high respect & hold in high regard the Founders of this Organization. I thoroughly enjoyed my experience with Visions of the Minds.

Such an amazing organization!! I have had the pleasure of being connected to Visions of the Mind, Inc. for many years. Having been a participant and now as a donor/volunteer I have seen the first hand benefits of how this organization mentors individuals to be contributing members of society. This organization has changed my life in so many ways; from providing hot meals for my family, to making sure our children have the necessary school supplies to succeed in school and even standing in the gap to make sure my child and every child in the organization has something to open on Christmas morning. But, as I think about things I would have to say the most meaningful characteristic of this organization is the time and love Ms. CiCi and Mrs. Josie spend pouring into the lives of the youth they meet letting them know their circumstances do not define them and they can be and do anything they set their minds too. Their love, their heart and their commitment to serve is truly unmatched. I am so grateful to be connected to this wonderful organization.
I love how the organization is heavy involved in the community. I think a few yrs back it was a back to school drive they did for the community and I was amazed at how many people came. I also like how no matter the season they try to have an event for the community.
Visions of the Mind and its team works hard for the community. Always having events for the youths ( Back to School, Halloween,Christmas and etc) They have some of the best mentors.
I LOVE Visions of mind! This is the best nonprofit organization that really helps the community. It’s really inspiring and gives people hope during such tough times! Thanks for all you do!
I Love this organization and what it stands for. They love serving their community and they do it with Love. I will always support Ms. CiCi and Josie. They actually care about the people the serve and it shows. Keep up the amazing job ladies.
The people behind Vision of the Minds are REAL people who genuinely love, care and look out for the community. Cici and Mrs. Josie are the sweetest, realest people you will ever meet. They always remember me and my daughter and I just appreciate their commitment to service. All of the people who volunteer with them are always kind and loyal to the organization - you see their faces season after season. The energy at every event is always fun and love-filled. It’s no wonder they attract such good people!
I am very grateful for Visions of the Mind. They have assisted me for years with my 10 plus family. They provide a clothing closet, events to keep the children occupied and off the streets, Christmas gifts, graduation celebrations., numerous events. And they don’t ask in return. I can’t thank them enough. Thank you so much!!
I have been apart of this organization(Vision of the Minds) for as long as I remember. This organization should us skills that we can take with us for the rest of our life. I have grew a lot since I been here from I shy lil girl to a girl that’s speaks up for herself. The mentors really care about everybody and I really like that. I wouldn’t choose no other organization to apart of.
I find Visions of the Minds to be a great Nonprofit. It gives whole heartily to the community. Children are very important to this organization, on major holidays and back to school, they give support to children and their families. I really appreciate the opportunity to volunteer with this organization to help others.
