Project Description

  • Magic Skill Bus
  • Magic Skill Bus will focus on equipping the communities hardest hit by generational poverty, incarceration and gun violence. We achieve self-sufficiency by providing access to hands-on skills that support healing, wellness, employment, education, training, and support services to succeed in the labor market. 
  • Magic Skill Bus
  • The Magic Skill Bus will unlock youths' unique entrepreneurship creativity, gain a greater understanding of more hands-on skills, improve their quality of life, and dare to prepare for promising futures. Through our program we are able to assist at-risk youth in making healthy, productive transitions into adulthood, by providing them with tools to find jobs that will lead to lifetime careers and take advantage of opportunities to pursue their own business ventures.

We will build internship programs for youths that focus on hands-on life skills and job skills to achieve economic independence.
