Where Purpose Meets IMPACT
Empowering Youth, Transforming Communities
At Project Impact 180, we believe that every young person has the potential to achieve greatness, and that with the right support and guidance, they can overcome any obstacle.
Our comprehensive mentoring program is designed to help youth develop critical life skills, from communication and problem-solving to goal-setting and decision-making. We are dedicated to providing each participant with the tools they need to succeed, and we are committed to creating supportive and safe environments where youth can thrive.
