HELP US CONTINUE TO REACH YOUTH AND BEAUTIFY OUR CITY THROUGH A MONTHLY FINANCIAL CONTRIBUTIONS

PILLARS OF COMMUNITY SERVICE

  • Neighborhood Revitalization - We partner with organizations to remove blight from neighborhoods

  • Park Beautification - We have adopted Rees Park (2nd district) and are focused on beautification projects.  We believe that parks are an essential component in the community, and we want everyone to enjoy the beauty and serenity of the park.

  • Therapeutic Horticulture Community Garden - We transform vacant spaces into beautiful community respite areas that provide a source for social development and emotional healing.
COMMUNITY IS AN IMPORTANT FACTOR IN HEALTH OUTCOMES
WE IMPROVE THE ENVIRONMENT | PROVIDE ECONOMIC RELIEF FOR YOUTH
Picture
WHAT ARE SDOH? 
  1. Social determinants of health (SDOH) are non-medical factors affecting health, like socioeconomic status, and geographic location.
  2. Addressing SDOH can enhance health and lead to better outcomes.
  3. ​
BLIGHTED CONDITIONS CAUSE
  • Safety Hazards - Abandoned properties attract skullduggery and invite trash and debris dumping 
  • Mental Health Trauma - Polluted communities have an impact on how we see ourselves and others
  • Social Problems - Increased crime and deterioration in quality of life
  • Economic Impact - Disinvestment in neighborhoods, reduced property values, and eroded housing markets

OUR DEMOGRAPHIC
We engage youth and adolescent ages 13 - 24 in community projects that restore the environment.  Our objective is to foster individual development through elements of exposure, engagement, and elevation.  Youth learn that success in life is created from their sustained efforts over a long period of time.  This includes creating good work habits, developing leadership skills, and learning how to work productively within a team.  In exchange, youth earn raises every 4 weeks and have opportunities to develop social and leadership skills and develop their resumes which help build their future!
GCP IS MADE UP OF ORDINARY PEOPLE COMMITTED TO DOING EXTRODINARY THINGS! WE ARE ALWAYS LOOKING FOR PEOPLE WHO HAVE PASSION AND BELIEVE IN THE POSSIBLE!  WILL YOU SHARE YOUR TIME, TALENT, OR TREASURE?  CLICK HERE.

A HEARTY THANK YOU TO OUR COMMUNITY SPONSORS

“For those who want to change the world, the first step is they must get proximate to the people who are suffering, who are being excluded, who are being disfavored and who are being incarcerated. We cannot change the world from a distance.”
