Project Title: Study on Full (SOF)
Project Description:

G.O.O.D. (Growth Over Odds & Doubts) Kids Inc. is a non-profit organization that mentor youth through education, sports and creative arts. G.O.O.D. Kids believe that sports and fitness are essential in eliminating childhood disease such as asthma, cardiovascular disease and obesity; we also believe that creative arts are essential to unlocking the creativity in our youth and building confidence. G.O.O.D. Kids also provide services for youth that has difficulty at home, school or in social settings because of emotional or behavioral problems. G.O.O.D. Kids has a heavy emphasis on educational services and we reach majority of our participants through our afterschool programs. We want all children to grow to their full potential.

G.O.O.D Kids’ after school program, Study on Full (SOF) is a successful after school program that has been in operation since 2006. The program operates Monday through Friday from 3PM to 7PM and follows the Richland County Public School calendar. The program provides nutritious meals to all participants. G.O.O.D Kid’s has used data from Feeding America to identify that in 2017 16.2% of the population in Richland County was food insecure. The pandemic has further exasperated that situation. G.O.O.D. Kids wants to ensure that all students are taken care of when they walk through our doors. We provide all students with a nutritious supper and snack when they first arrive. During that time students are invited to reflect upon their day. Staff are trained to ensure that students are engaged and notice any changes from day to day. After receiving a snack participants will go to their designated area and complete their homework assignments and tutorials. Additionally, students will spend time engaged in a wide range of other activities such as mentorships and working on civic engagement projects, all at no cost to their families and facilities.
