The mission of the YES! (Youth Empowerment Services) program is to be a bridge from our church to our local neighborhood. YES! offers a seasonal STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics) based Saturday enrichment program to K-8 students. YES! also provides children in our community with school supplies every year in July. In a partnership with the Marietta City Schools social workers, YES! provides community families with food throughout the calendar year.
How Can I Get Involved?
Due to an abundance of caution, YES! Camp and HYC 2020 have been canceled. Meanwhile, we’re continuously looking for ways to encourage our YES! families and would love to hear your ideas. We certainly need help with local food pantry service projects in the first full week of July. On Monday, July 6th we need 10-12 volunteers from 8AM-11 AM to unload food at Marietta Sixth Grade Academy. On Tuesday, July 7th from 5 PM- 8 PM, we need 8-10 volunteers to make food boxes at the same location. On Wednesday, July 8th we need 10-12 volunteers to support the food pick up by placing boxes in cars (should be able to lift 35lbs). Social distancing protocols will be upheld during all service operations. Click below to sign up to volunteer if you and/or your small group would like to help!
