Oasis For Girls
Oasis for Girls provides culturally relevant and gender-specific programs to empower girls and build sisterhood through shared experiences. They offer 3 programs (girls attend one at a time)—each with a different curriculum. These programs span academic and career exploration, creative arts, and social justice. Their girls are taught and mentored by Program Coordinators who mirror our girls’ backgrounds and serve as allies throughout their high-school years and beyond.
Latinas Contra Cancer
LCC believes the quality of life is vital for a longer, healthier and more productive life; and addresses some of the root issues of cancer-care disparity–prevention, intervention and support. This is made possible through education, awareness, access to quality care and research.
Safe Space
SafeSpace is a youth-led, mental health-focused organization that empowers young people to engage openly with their local schools and communities. We create and implement initiatives to change the conversation around mental health by educating and encouraging our peers to speak up, support others, and seek help when needed.
Nine Lives Foundation
Nine Lives Foundation proudly provides lifelines for at-risk cats and kittens and affordable, compassionate care for our feline friends and the people who love them. Let’s save lives together!
