Youth Hope & Inspiration Inc. is a 501c3 nonprofit organization based on Christian principles that encourages a joint, community-led effort to reduce high school dropout rates, non-promotions, expulsions, suspensions, disciplinary offenses, teen pregnancies, suicides, homicides, felonies, drug/alcohol abuse and obesity. It is our belief that opportunities and positive reinforcements is the key to saving our youth from becoming victims of these high risk behaviors. We realize that children are our future leaders, and we must work together to teach them to make better choices and to explore, discover, and learn. Youth Hope & Inspiration Inc. was founded by two sisters who grew up in a family that had limited resources. Although their parents encouraged them to explore their interest, they were not able to participate in some of the extracurricular activities of their choice. As adults, they realize that children desperately need an opportunity to explore their interest and talents, but they know that financial situations can make it difficult. Driven by their passion to empower the youth, they began using their own money to sponsor children. It is their hope that the community will join them in their mission and in making their vision become a reality.

Our vision is to ensure all youth have an equal opportunity to participate in extracurricular activities, programs, and field trips of their choice.


Our mission is to encourage the community to work together to provide youth, of disadvantaged and/or low-income families, enriching experiences for healthy development.
