Empowering Youth through Hands-On Skills: Build Repair Grow Secures $1000 in Funding

Build Repair Grow, a transformative organization dedicated to empowering youth through hands-on skill development, is thrilled to announce a successful funding round in which we raised $1,000. Our mission is to equip young individuals with essential life skills, including gardening, cooking, carpentry, sewing, and bike repair, fostering their independence, problem-solving abilities, and resilience. We believe that these practical skills not only contribute to personal growth but also enhance community health and well-being. Initially focused on in-person, hands-on learning experiences, Build Repair Grow has pivoted to adapt to the challenges posed by the pandemic, ensuring that our young participants continue to gain value from our programs. With the new funding, we aim to expand our reach, develop more take-home project kits, and enhance our library of online instructional videos. This grant will enable us to provide vital resources to young participants who may not have had the opportunity to learn these essential skills otherwise. Our project kits come with step-by-step guides, making it easier for youth to engage with the materials in their own homes while also encouraging family participation in the learning process. We are deeply grateful for the support we have received, which will allow us to continue our commitment to teaching skills that build individual resiliency and confidence in a sustainable way. As we embark on this new phase, we invite the community to join us in making a significant impact on the lives of the youth we serve. Together, let's sow the seeds of knowledge and self-sufficiency!
