New Building

Many people have asked how they can help me, and I want to share an important update about the POOF Teen Center. Our lease is set to expire in February, and due to rising costs and limited income, I’ve made the difficult decision not to renew it. However, I have a vision: I hope to purchase a permanent home for our program by 2026, and I need your support to make this dream a reality.

For years, I have dedicated my time, energy, and resources to ensuring that teens have a safe and nurturing environment. I do not charge the families who participate in our program, and despite my efforts I have received limited grant funding. I have personally invested over $200,000 into the Teen Center, providing a safe haven, academic support, opportunities for travel and entrepreneurship for our teens.

I also provide free transportation using a single 14-passenger van, which means I often take multiple trips to ensure all teens can get to the center. As a single mother of two biological children, I embrace all the teens as my own, pouring my heart into their futures. I not only help them excel in school but also empower them to explore their passions and potential.

To continue this vital work and secure a permanent space for our teens, I have launched a fundraiser to help with a down payment on a building. With your generosity, we can create a lasting home for the POOF Teen Center.

Every contribution, whether a one-time gift or a monthly donation, makes a difference. Please consider supporting this cause and help me provide a lasting home for the POOF Teen Center. Together, we can ensure that I can continue the incredible work I do for our teens and their futures
