Pilot or new project, program, or initiative (testing or implementing a new idea)

To access funding for the classes we are offering and to access programs for the youth in the community. Without the funding we struggle to keep up with the ongoing traffic for these programs.

King Solomon’s House has the goal to create pathways to success and stability, offering educational classes, skills training, and mentorship opportunities that empower individuals to reach their full potential such as healing circles, peer support groups, and mentorship.

We want to equip our mentees with the knowledge and tools they need to make positive choices, overcome obstacles, and create a better future for themselves and those around them. Our mentors serve as role models, confidants, and advocates for their mentees, helping them to build self-esteem, develop resilience, and cultivate a sense of belonging and purpose. Whether it's helping with schoolwork, exploring career options, or navigating personal challenges, our mentors are there every step of the way, providing unwavering support and guidance. We believe this will make a difference in our youth and our city.

Our youth mentoring program is designed to empower young people aged 10 to 26 to not only navigate the challenges they face but to thrive within their community, with guided and evidence-based supportive strategies. We believe that every young person has untapped potential. Through regular one-on-one meetings, group activities, and community events, mentors provide guidance, support, and encouragement to their mentees, helping them to unlock their full potential and achieve their goals. But our mentoring program is about more than just offering advice and support—it's about teaching valuable life lessons and empowering young people to become leaders within their community. Through a combination of experiential learning, skill-building workshops, and real-world experiences. The requested funding will allow our organization to purchase needed materials to support the youth’s learning expectations and answer questions from additional members.
