“The seminar aims to guide young boys toward discovering their potential and identity, provide single mothers with practical tools for raising boys and build a network of support in the community for youth development.

To ensure the success of this initiative, we seek partnership with local residents and businesses through donations and sponsorship of refreshments for attendees.

“We also quest cosmetic items to be used as entrance tokens and care packs for the boys, such as bath towels, soaps, toothpastes and other basics.
