YTD Raised: £0.00
(UK, 1097720) Phocus as a project is run under St Lukes CARES, currently in Partnership with Mission Direct. Linking local estate youth work with young people aged 14 - 22 years from often very challenging home environments with international expedition to some of the poorest countries in the world, currently Sierra Leone, West Africa. Phocus aims to Create Opportunities 4 Change, enabling local young people to dream bigger dreams for their lives, to know that good things are possible for them, and if they work towards stuff they can achieve it. A belief in innate value, teamwork and the development of life skills sitting at the heart of what we do.Whilst on expedition we link with local grass roots projects, doing building work, working with AIDS orphans, street kids, those with polio and the elderly. Whilst at home in the UK we are based in South Leeds, and work on the estates daily, walking with individuals though the challenges of their lives - high un-employment, high levels of domestic violence, substance misuse, low self esteem and minimal aspirations.As a project Phocus has seen amazing results, increased confidence, better educational choices, apprentiships, university, to name just a few. Our local estates are not easy places to live, but in time I believe that transformation is possible, this will come from the inside out, but it must begin from the outside in. It is fundamental that our kids believe that the are well worth investing in; that they too have much to give."I learnt that happiness isnt something that can be switch on...it is a feeling that you are not on you own & that you are an individually special & cared for person" (Male, 17)."It changed my life. I used to have panic attacks all the time before I went, now I dont. I have gone back to school & control my anger better" (Male, 15).By sponsoring Phocus as a project you will without question be playing a key part in positively transforming peoples lives. Thank you.
