Day 3 of the GoodGiving Challenge: Empowering Young Leaders in Our Community ✨

At Urban Impact, we have the privilege of walking alongside some of the most inspiring young people, from elementary school to college and beyond. For over 15 years, we’ve seen students grow in their God-given strengths and develop as leaders through opportunities like STEM initiatives, academic support, Bible lessons, unforgettable trips—and our beloved drama club.

This year marks our fourth year of drama club at Crawford Middle School, with 33 students bringing a production to life. That’s 33 costumes, countless rehearsals, and priceless moments of confidence and teamwork, all at no cost to the students.

We’ve watched past students take the stage in high school, lead small groups in college, and step into careers that reflect the leadership they’ve nurtured here.

Your generosity makes this possible. Together, we’re creating pathways to success for young leaders who will shape the future of our community. Let’s make these final days of the challenge unforgettable! 💪

Day 2 of the GoodGiving Challenge: Spotlight on Leadership Academy!

Violence in our neighborhoods is a stark reminder of why sustained prevention and intervention efforts are so critical. Through our Leadership Academy, we’re equipping young people to build brighter, safer futures:
👉 Supported 8 court-involved youth and their families as they navigated the justice system.
👉 Facilitated peer groups for 14 middle schoolers and 20 high schoolers, focusing on coping skills and career readiness.
👉 Launched a healing circle for 5 students at Henry Clay High School through Joven Noble.
👉 Promoted safety and success for 65 kids through Neighborhood Nights in Woodhill.

Looking ahead, we’re committed to expanding trauma-informed counseling, education supports, and life-changing opportunities for more youth. Together, we can create a stronger, safer community! 💪
