Requested Amount: $10,000

Project Title: END It After-School Prevention & Arts Enrichment Program
Project Description:

END It ("Everybody’s Not Doing It") seeks $10,000 to support one year of its prevention-focused after-school program serving middle and high school students in Fort Pierce and surrounding St. Lucie County communities. The program provides structured supervision during critical after-school hours, when teens are most vulnerable to negative peer influence and risky behaviors.

Participants receive academic tutoring and homework support, performing arts instruction, leadership development, and college and career exposure opportunities. Through music, drama, and creative expression, youth build confidence, communication skills, teamwork, and personal responsibility while reinforcing positive decision-making. Many students served come from households facing financial hardship and limited access to extracurricular enrichment.

Funds will support instructional staff stipends, program supplies, educational materials, and need-based scholarships to ensure participation remains accessible. Approximately 80 students will benefit directly from the after-school program during the grant period.

By providing safe, structured alternatives and meaningful engagement, END It works to reduce unsupervised time, strengthen academic performance, and equip teens with skills that support long-term success.

Total Project Budget: $85,000
