Metro Kidz is an after school, values based program that has seen tremendous success in keeping kids out of gangs and off drugs. Gatherings are held weekly in the heart of the most socio-economically challenged areas of the Inland Empire, areas plagued by gangs and drugs. Hundreds of children attend each Metro Kidz event. Many of the young men in leadership positions in the program came out of gang involvement and offer living testimonies of changed lives from making right choices. Parks & Recreation Departments and law enforcement state their support for this program. Police report they respond to fewer calls in the area when Metro Kidz is in session, acknowledging the positive influence the program has in the community. Your support of Metro Kidz directly impacts not only the lives of these children, but also the course of their community and generations to come.
Monetary donations are used to expand this program to additional local communities, maintenance on the Metro Kidz truck (custom built to accommodate a portable stage), fuel, food and prize giveaways to the children, educational materials, purchase and maintenance of a public address system, uniform t-shirts for Metro Kidz volunteer staff and city permits.
