MISSION
“To build healthier communities by empowering youth and families.”
THE PROJECT
Sister To Sister is a community service based organization that uses its signature program, S.U.P.E.R. (Supreme, Unity, Perpetuating, Eternal, and Revolution) Saturday, to serve females from the ages of six to seventeen. Our programs provide a safe haven for the girls to laugh, learn, play games, and have so much fun!
We offer a variety of pre-planned, character-building and educational activities to reinforce the participants' academic and life skills abilities. Additionally, all od our youth are being introduced and actively engaged with our Y-TEC (New Generation - Teaching Technology, Expanding Education, & Cultivation of Creativity) program, which encompasses the new frontier of education. Survival in America’s competitive economy depends on today’s youth learning to hone in on their soft skills and some form of technology to include but not limited to; graphic design app design, digital branding, video editing, coding, and blogging. In order to expand their education and cultivate their creativity to produce a reality that will preserve their economic future and close the participation gap, they must be skillfully trained in STEM education. While empowering our youth with skills and the knowledge to recognize their own potential, we will lead them to learn to respect and value of others.
