What does your organization do?
Visionary Youth has been in operation since 2001 prior to filing 501(c)3 status and in that time, has served over 3000 young people and their families with free haircuts, school supplies, personal hygiene and basic needs items, family events, gifts at Christmas, and informal mentorship. Currently, Visionary Youth is looking to expand their programming to formalize mentorship activities with a group of barbers trained as mentors and passionate about serving as positive adult role models for disadvantaged youth.
