    Tosha Freeman, Afterschool Program Parent
    At [the Community Action Café] we get people who sacrifice so much for us, and that motivates us to help those around us.

    Ana, YELLS Big

    Ashami
    The kids out here [on Franklin Road] are all looking for a better future, and we help them find that better future.
    Ashami, Hospitality and Service Team Member
    It makes you feel good to give back.
    Devin
    I take everything I learned from YELLS everywhere I go. Your vision is truly being lived out through students like me.
    Jonah, YELLS Big
    Because we learn about the community [from community members] we are more knowledgeable about the needs of the community.
    Tori
    It’s all positive energy in here!
    Devin, YELLS Graduate
    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!
