Positivity for the Youth

Our Mission


Empowering Inner-City Youth
Positivity for the Youth has been serving communities from South Seattle to Tacoma since 1988. We are dedicated to providing after school programs for inner-city children.
Unfortunately, crime rates in the area have only trended in a worse direction after improvement for some time, especially in neighborhoods such as Tukwila, Rainier Beach, and Hilltop. Also, kids are getting involved with gangs, theft, and truancy at younger ages. Our goal is to engage the youth in positive activities, such as sports and arts & crafts, and empower them through these functional pastimes. Join us in making a difference in the lives of these young individuals.
Programs
What We Offer
Our services include a variety of programs designed to promote community and empowerment among our children. From organized sports tournaments to arcade visits, we hope to teach the next generation valuable life skills and create a supportive community for these young individuals.

Basketball
1Perfect Execution
Our basketball program offers a fun and interactive way for kids to develop both physically and mentally, bringing a sense of camaraderie and healthy competition. Many of our kids have gone to play at a high level in high school, college, and even professionally
Arts & Crafts
Through our arts & crafts program, kids learn the importance of cooperation, creativity, and perseverance. In the future, we are hoping to create a studio for kids interested in making music.


Volunteering
The goal of our volunteering program is to include the children in acts of service, where they are giving back good energy into our greater community. We are actively looking for new volunteers- adults included!
