Program

"Our Rites of Passage Self Discovery Program is dedicated to empowering and improving the lives of Black Youth through a 22 week (20 Instructional Weeks/2 Week Journey to Ghana). During the intensive 22 Week Program, students take a self discovery journey in which they learn about self, where they come from and what they are capable of achieving, leadership development, financial literacy, drug/alcohol awareness and community service. Our goal is to create a safe space for Black Youth to grow, flourish and transition into adulthood."

It takes a village to raise a child and Gifts of Hope would like to be that village.
Support our Rites of Passage Program, today!.

El equipo de GOH trabajó diligentemente para asegurar que los niños de mi programa extracurricular recibieran sus canastas de Pascua. Realmente les agradezco el regalo de la esperanza que usted y su equipo le dieron a mis hijos.
