OR WRITE TO US:
The Community Center was completed in the Fall of 2018. After-school programming incorporating core 4-H based programs and other programs we identify through community partners are underway primarily targeting youth ages 4-20 years old. 4-H is a positive youth development organization where young people are learning leadership, citizenship, and life skills.
Youth of all ages take part in a variety of programming that has been vetted and tested by 4-H clubs around the world. In addition to our 4-H programming, we are constantly building partnerships with other nonprofits, foundations, companies, and individuals from the Bahamas as well as abroad to implement innovative and impactful programs and short-term initiatives. Programs currently being implemented include: financial literacy, STEM program, sewing, visual arts, workforce prep, swimming, reading, and a computer literacy/science program.
We welcome ideas and connections for new and impactful programs, so please reach out.
