Review for Forever Young Foundation, Mesa, AZ, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I have been working as an educational consultant for the Forever Young Foundation for the past 5 years. I also teach every day in a state of the art multimedia classroom built by FYF. With funds and support from FYF, I have have been able to design and build multimedia classrooms for youth in Florida, New Orleans, Houston, Hawaii the San Francisco Bay Area. These studios have allowed these children to find expression and creativity in areas where no resources existed. Through FYF gifts, these young people have been empowered to gain professional skills, find their own voice and advocate for their communities through multimedia. I know this because FYF has sent me to each location to provide hands on training with youth and their mentors.

Forever Young doesn't do "red tape". Forever Young does results. FYF asks "Where is the need?" and "How can we fill it as quickly and effectively as possible?". I have had the pleasure to see the immediate and long term impact of FYF programs on the lives of youth. FYF sets the standard for serving today's youth with vision and creativity.
