About You

Why are you applying for The Elevate Prize?

I am applying for this grant to expand te services I am providing for underserved youth. I want to reduce the number of junveile crimes in my community

Tell us about YOU:

I have been apart of gangs and in prision. After giving my life to Christ I was able to turn my life around. Now I am led to support the children without a positive role model in their life. My goal is to have Weigh Out ministries touch the lives of youth and they in turn come back and continue the same cycle.
