Helping Young People Elevate HYPE

02/14/2026

Galentine’s was a SUCCESS 💕
The girls started off a little shy… but by the end, they were open, honest, and connected. We laughed, we shared, and we could have literally cried together today.

Great conversations.
Great advice.
Great listening ears.

This is what safe spaces look like. This is what H.Y.P.E. is about. 👑✨

H.Y.P.E. – Helping Young People Elevate was created because every young person in Akron deserves a chance to rise. Our purpose is simple: mentorship, life skills, and violence prevention. We provide guidance, accountability, and opportunity to help youth discover their path. If you want your young king or queen to grow with us, register them today. Together, we elevate futures! Sign up Today akronhype.org!!!

We empower young boys and girls to make better choices, rise above violence, and become the leaders their communities need.
