How Can You Help?
The building of our youth will take more than one or two organizations, but the community as a whole. It’s going to take “a village” going into the schools, homes and lives of our youth, to counter the destructive effects of peer pressure, gang violence, criminal activity, unhealthy relationships, etc.
If you are interested in collaborating with Millennium to make an impact in the development of our youth by donating time, finances or services, don’t hesitate to call us at 616-245-6443 for more information.
