Our Mission

Youth Life Foundation of Richmond operates Learning Centers to develop leaders by making long-term investments in children from under-resourced communities.

By supporting students academically, developing their character from a young age, raising expectations, and investing in their lives through committed relationships, these youth will rise above their circumstances to become tomorrow’s leaders.

 

Our Vision

Nurture the Child

We are providing a safe environment where children receive academic and character development through structured programming and relationships with teachers and volunteer tutors and mentors.

 
 
 
 
 

Strengthen the Family

We are building relationships with families by involving them in goal-setting and evaluation of their child’s progress. In addition, we provide ongoing family strengthening programs in an effort to empower them with skills that nurture the development of their children and the family unit.

 
 

Rebuild the Community

In nurturing the children and strengthening the families, it is our hope that they would discover a renewed sense of pride in their neighborhood. Ultimately, we want to see a generation of leaders making an impact in their community.
