Empowering Youth & The Community Worldwide
Our Purpose
To give back to the community-at-large, work with our at-risk youth via mentorship, academic achievement goals, expectations, job readiness skills, entrepreneurial skills, the importance of volunteerism, and provide guidance enabling them to become future leaders, and productive citizens.
"Making Someone Smile is the Most Beautiful Thing in The World."
Empowering Students Through Adversity Scholarship
At Grace Youth Mentoring and Community Outreach, we believe that every challenge faced is a stepping stone toward greatness.
The ‘Empowering Students Through Adversity Scholarship’ is more than financial support it is a celebration of resilience, courage, and the unstoppable determination of students who rise above life’s hardest trials. We recognize the power of education to change lives, and we honor the strength, dreams, and future of every student who dares to keep moving forward despite the obstacles placed before them. This scholarship is not just about helping you pay for school it’s about acknowledging your journey, lifting your voice, and investing in the bright future you are destined to create.
If you are a graduating senior ready to take the next step in your journey whether college or trade school we encourage you to APPLY today. Share your story, your passion, and your vision for the future, and let your perseverance open the doors to new opportunities. Your experiences have shaped you into someone stronger than adversity, and now it’s time to turn that strength into success.

TESTIMONIALS
Jessica, W
Mother of Two POWER Program Participants
‘I came across Charlene’s Facebook post advertising her POWER program, back in Spring 2021. I had never heard of her or the program, but I’m all for children empowerment, so I messaged her for more information. (Listen, my daughters and I are anti, we don’t like humans at all!) When I met Charlene in person it was instant love!! My daughter is inspired by Charlene and loves everything about her! The POWER program has given my daughter more confidence and motivation to do the things she loves to do. Charlene has been a positive role model and mentor for both me and my daughters and I’m appreciative of her efforts in the community. Charlene’s genuine spirit and positive energy radiates through her youth programs and gives the youth hope for the future. I can’t wait to see her and GYMACO grow within the community.
