More About Grow Your World

Grow Your World (GYW) is a youth-centered community-building organization that uses intergenerational mentorship to expand access to opportunities. Our programming is grounded in the values of abundance, community and empowerment and uses social-emotional practices, positive identity development, and developmental relationships to help young people improve their academic confidence, mental health, support systems and access to opportunities. 

At Grow Your World, we connect community members through multigenerational and inclusive relationships that build enrichment opportunities for youth and adults alike. We envision a vibrant and interconnected community that equitably enriches all of its members socially, emotionally, intellectually, and economically. Currently, we offer a virtual mentor-tutoring program (Tutoring After 6pm) and an arts-based enrichment program for justice-involved and justice-impacted youth (INKounter). In 2023, we are providing summer programming (I Came to Create) and aim to funnel participants into after school programming during the school year.
