SUPPORT NEEDED

Without a financial infusion, We Survive’s Day of Hope will not be able to continue. See the video below for more about the Day of Hope.

We Survive believes that our community’s children our greatest dividend. That is why we have invested in their futures.

We are living in uncertain times. After the recent tragic events across our nation, many people are fearful and feel a sense of hopelessness.  Knowing there is HOPE is what keeps people motivated.

Those who live in poverty or are susceptible to poverty, hunger and homelessness have reason to feel hopeless.  We Survive’s Day of Hope and LIGHTFEST Re-Ignited are designed to reinvigorate hope.

Show your compassion so we can continue to take action.  INVEST in youth.

We NEED YOU to help improve impoverished lives!

We Survive has taken their program to the world via podcast

So, you may be asking yourself, What in the WORLD is a podcast?

“A podcast is a series of digital-media files which are distributed over the Internet using syndication feeds for playback on portable media players and computers. The term podcast, like broadcast, can refer either to the series of content itself or to the method by which it is syndicated; the latter is also called podcasting. The host or author of a podcast is often called a podcaster.”
