\nProject Description:<\/p>\n
The Glens Falls Area Youth Center is a non-profit organization that serves disadvantaged youth(5th to 12th graders) in the Greater Glens Falls, New York area through a wide variety of educational, recreational and life-skills programs(including after school snacks and dinner each day), completely free of charge. We first opened our doors back in 1968 and since that time we have successfully served over 100,000 underprivileged children, dished out over 750,000 meals and tutored over 31,000 students. The children who are members of the center are a diverse assortment of cultures, races, ethnicities, belief systems and personalities.They are also at-risk; many of them are ostracized, bullied, and not expected to achieve much of anything.The majority of our members come from low income families; 90 percent fall below the poverty line and qualify for free or reduced lunch at school.
\nOur Health and Wellness Program, which helps kids become healthier physically, mentally and emotionally, fuses together a blend of recreation, life skills and enlightenment. <\/p>\n
Many of our members are managing issues that can prevent them from thriving, like anxiety, depression, struggles with anger management, and food insecurity. Through the Health and Wellness Program, we help children learn how to deal with their emotions by utilizing proper coping skills, provide food security, focus on self care (including goal setting, healthy habits, exercise, and personal hygiene), prepare for the workforce, unleash their imaginations through art and instill the importance of empathy and compassion.\n<\/p>\n
