A couple of years ago his 2-year-old brother was killed in a drive-by shooting. Two weeks ago his teenage sister was gunned down by rival gang members. It is not a season to be jolly for this young man. A high school dropout and a Bulldog gang member, the odds are stacked against him. Yet, in spite of the tragedies and pain that have devastated his family, he continues to press forward to change his life.* This year we have helped 138 other young men who have similar stories.

That means each dollar is poured into building and establishing relationships with the youth in our program. It is the caring relationship that allows a life to be changed. We are making a difference, and your gift allows us to continue. As you consider an end of

Come meet the young men who are experiencing difficult times and yet who are being renewed and given hope now for a better future.
