● MAKE A DIFFERENCE

There’s a place for you in the village.

A conversation. A connection. A skill. A few hours of your time. Access to a workplace, a classroom, a resource, or an opportunity.

Kourageous Kidz brings caring adults, professionals, businesses, schools, churches, and community organizations together to help Georgia teens build confidence, practical life skills, leadership, career awareness, and a stronger sense of what’s possible for their future.

You don’t have to do everything. You just have to be willing to bring what you have.

● Share What You Know

What you know could open a door for a young person.

Sometimes one conversation, workshop, demonstration, or introduction can expose a teen to a path they may not have considered before.

If you have experience, knowledge, or a skill that could help young people see what’s possible, we’d love to hear from you.
