The following areas are available for sponsorship opportunities:
Theater Room | 500/month
Help us provide our youth with a room that allows them to unite, create a brotherhood, and relax in a comfortable environment where they can be entertained through video games and movies. This room will also be the powerhouse for the organization, where we will have board meetings, mentor trainings, and community engagement. Your sponsorship would help cover the costs of the projection equipment and streaming opportunities.
Gym | 300/month
Physical activity is one of our main goals in our mission. Creating a safe space and meeting our youth directly where they are enables us to make a great impact. Your sponsorship will allow this gym to meet the needs of youth and their interest in basketball, keeping it free to all youth who access. This space will create a competitive spirit amongst youth with goals to create positive sportsmanship and an overall safe and healthy environment.
Computer Lab | 250/month
Nothing gets a student to focus more on education than sitting in a computer lab. Your sponsorship will help create a learning environment that is organized and structured. Students will be provided with mentors and tutors to help them meet their academic goals and help close achievement gaps.
Podcast Room | 500/month
Who doesn’t like to have an opportunity to express themselves? With your sponsorship of this room, youth will have access to the opportunity of self-expression, communication with like-minded individuals, and explore already created podcasts that will ignite passions, entertain, and/ or educate. Your sponsorship will encourage our youth to share their story and make an impact on those around the world.
Wi-Fi | 300/month
Help ignite the minds of our youth and provide them with an opportunity to achieve their potential. Your sponsorship will help youth access the Wi-Fi required for them to complete their school-based assignments, as well as enrich their minds through educational activities and learning opportunities. In addition, our youth can relax in a safe space and listen to music, podcasts, or play games to improve their mindset. The Wi-Fi stretches throughout the entire building to allow all youth equal access no matter what room they are in. The Wi-Fi sponsorship also includes the security cameras to ensure all youth remain safe inside the center.
Game Room | 250/month
A sponsorship of the game room is a sponsorship toward positive mindset and mental health. Playing games and laughing with mentors and their peers, helps reduce the stress many students are faced with. Your sponsorship will allow us to fill the room with board games, puzzles, and any other activities that would bring a smile for our youth.
