We are excited to partner with local businesses in our endeavor to reach the youth! We are officially launching our "Fighting To Be Heard t-shirt campaign. This vision was given to one of our young constituents and the campaign has garnered positive feedback in the Greater Atlanta area and across the United States. We invite you to help us keep the momentum going! As a leader in both your organization and our community, we hope that you desire to participate in our campaign to drive awareness and funding for our youth programs and services.
Destined For Greatness is pleased to announce the launch of our inaugural Fighting To Be Heard Youth Mentor Program which matches mentors with middle and high school students in one-to-one relationships for an academic year. Through these relationships, as well as recreational and group activities, our matches share friendship, support, and fun. Mentors and mentees get together at least once a week. Both mentors and mentees make a commitment to spend time together throughout the academic year.

We are currently accepting Applications for both Mentors and Mentees.
