. . . what if our children stop dreaming?
the Problem; inner-city, at-risk, disadvantaged teen girls give up on their dreams by high school.
the Result; teens with unplanned futures tend to make poorer choices.
the Solution; We will use the successes of the few to power the hopes of the many.
.
we can’t almost do something to help
leaving their dreams to almost come true
We help beat down, demoralized, traumatized teen girls with unplanned futures and rapidly fading hope growing up in the projects, homeless shelters or in group home foster care facilities that want to become singers.
It’s a story of teen girls with unappreciated worth carelessly tossed like rag dolls from home to home. For girls that age out at 18 . . .
- almost 50% are pregnant by age 19
- almost 50% have been arrested by 19
- almost 1/3 are homeless by 20,
- and maybe 2 or 3 out of 100 finish college
It’s a story of dr. rob roe one Saturday telling five of the girls in the practice studio, “everyone thinks we are just trying to get a hit song, but really I’m just trying to fix each of you.”
Then Shayla says, “No Rob, we’re supposed to fix you.”
.
We provide a constant of hope for troubled teens with unplanned futures growing up in group home foster care, homeless shelters, the projects powered by dreams of singing greatness of the few, yet shared by many.
