Not all kids have the same opportunities to succeed in their lives, but with some help and encouragement, they can discover new horizons and increase their chances of being something great. PGNF Youth, a non-profit organization, desires to help the kids of the Charlotte area and India expand their horizons, attain valuable materials that they may not have, and receive teen-counseling.
The mission of our organization is to help the elderly and young by giving them more opportunities to fulfill their lives no matter their situation and also, be the role models for youth in India to involve in the community from young age.
Projects
Kids against COVID is a project created by PGNF Youth to raise awareness on how we can defend against diseases like Covid-19 coronavirus. The video focuses on 3 behaviors we should all follow so that we can limit the spread of infection, and take care of ourselves and our loved ones. The video uses the health belief model, a model used by researchers to analyze behaviors related to health. In order to effectively combat the disease in the future and see how we can further improve our efforts, we have attached a pre and post survey to the video. This data is 100% confidential, and will help our efforts fighting Covid-19.
We invite your family to participate in this project and complete the below steps in order.
NOTE: Survey must be done by kids between (9 to 18 yrs) old.
STEP 1: Submit Pre-Survey Form - Pre-Survey Form PGNF Youth
STEP 2: Watch Video - PGNFYouth_KidsAgainstCOVID
STEP 3: Submit Post-Survey Form - Post-Survey Form PGNF Youth
Giving back your time to the community
Health Care:
Our primary focus on this project is to give back our time and services to medical/health care centers that care for people.
Community Care:
This project brings awareness to communities regarding several social causes/events through our campaigns.
The STEAM,(Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math), Workshops explore different skills and subjects that many children do not have access too. These include scientific experiments, music creation, intuitive activities like chess, and many others. The kids, aided by experienced PGNF Youth members, spend some time participating in different activities that they have interest in, or develop an interest after they leave the STEAM workshop.
In the science workshop, we have the kids do science experiments. We do this to help the kids gain an interest in science.
Horizon Drive collects books, sports equipment, school supplies, clothes, food, and toys.
Horizons Drive collects different materials that many kids and students do not have. The drive helps schools with the collection of school materials, books, and sports equipment; the drive also helps medical centers by collecting clothes, food, toys, and medical instruments.
Collecting sports equipment for schools that need sports equipment
Coming soon...
We need your help
All the projects we do around the Charlotte area will be approved, adopted, and translated to India through our parent organization PGNF. In order for this to happen, we need your help. The drives and workshops that we conduct need materials and man-power in order to operate and succeed, not only in Charlotte but also in India. These same projects will help the kids in India discover their own horizons, and become a new generation of innovators for a developing country.
