    Imani, YELLS Big

    When we first came to America we were timid. When we came to YELLS my mentality changed… YELLS has helped me to keep my family together and organized. Taking care of kids by YELLS is wonderful!

    The kids don’t always talk about their day at school, but they always want to talk about their day at YELLS.
    Tosha Freeman, Afterschool Program Parent
    I take everything I learned from YELLS everywhere I go. Your vision is truly being lived out through students like me.
    Jonah, YELLS Big
    At [the Community Action Café] we get people who sacrifice so much for us, and that motivates us to help those around us.
