Powered for Life is a faith-based program to help young people learn and experience the value of work.
Every kid has a dream, but for many, their dreams are dying. Twenty percent of young people live in poverty. In many neighborhoods, high school dropout rates exceed 50%. Dropouts are eight times more likely to go to prison than to return to school. Powered for Life is a powerful tool to lead young people in our community to uncover their gifts and talents, live with hope and a sense of purpose, and help them dream for the future.
