Where Your Donation Goes

Healing & Wellness Support

Through programs like Healing Circles, sound therapy, art therapy, mindfulness and community-based mental health services, we help individuals cope with trauma and reclaim peace.

Youth Engagement & Leadership

Our youth-led initiative 1 Brotherhood Empowered (for ages ~12–19) gives teens safe spaces, peer support, civic-engagement opportunities, nature retreats, mentoring, and leadership training - building confidence, purpose, and resilience.

Community Outreach & Support

Through outreach, resource-connection, court-accompaniment, and grassroots support services, we uplift marginalized families - especially within low- income Black & Hispanic communities along the Route 1 corridor.

Basic Needs & Seasonal Relief

Programs like Stock the Block (food, essential supplies) and Angel Program (holiday gifts, back-to-school supplies) ensure no child or family is left without support - especially during crises or holiday seasons.

Civic Engagement & Systems Change

Through civic-education, community organizing, and grassroots advocacy (via COMMUN1TY+), we build long-term capacity so residents - youth and adults alike - can shape policies and community conditions.

Safe Spaces & Emotional Support

We create spaces of dignity, respect, and healing where individuals and families can heal from trauma, find community, and rebuild hope.
