Welcome to Learn My History Foundation!
A Multicultural Youth Empowerment Mass-Mentoring Fusion; to positively encourage youth to be leaders and not statistics and help create a more diverse respectable world.
Our short Youtube Promo below shows that with GROWTH & SUPPORT, we will continue to change lives, one youth at a time, here in Florida as we originated in New York! ~ We invite you to email us your progressive ideas!
I. SUMMARY
Who What Where When & Why
* Who We Are: We are a Multicultural Youth Empowerment Non-Profit 501 (c) (3) organization, fully legalized to operate our one-of-a-kind Mentoring Fusions.
* What We Do: Our fusion facilitates presentations and performances that help bridge the gap to the younger generation by successful educators, entertainers and business professionals to awaken and celebrate hidden potential of all, and particularly “at-risk” youth. We encourage young people to be leaders and not statistics and bring positive attention to influential, inspirational individuals.

What does “at-risk” mean?
An “at-risk” youth, are usually those who by virtue of their circumstances, are unaware that they're statistically more likely to be challenged academically, and less likely to become successful. In the United States, there are many different definitions of “at risk”; including those with behavioral issues, the disabled, students who make lower grades (academically disadvantaged), peer pressured students and those of lower income, or one parent households.
Subsequently, LMH may help counter the negative influences of mis-education. With this in mind, by way of inter-generational education, LMH defines the present by learning from the past, so that ALL young minds might look forward to a brilliant future.

We aim to reach middle and high school aged youth, a range that unfortunately correlates with high rates of chemical abuse under-development, poor coping skills, teen pregnancy, inadequate education, and high risk behavior where HIV/ AIDS and other STI’s are contracted and left untreated.
LMH addresses these specific concerns with onsite guidance from speakers like those from the Board of Health for example, who may answer confidential questions, provide protection, brochures, and counseling locations, all in an attempt to lower dangerous risks. Our mission includes having individuals who have studied this history, and youth mentors for in-person or ‘e’ correspondence connections, as well as information about appropriate interactions to prevent certain situations.
* Where We Operate - LMH will operate our programs in various educational, multi-cultural or community locations.
* When - We strive for 2-3 events throughout the year and 3 ongoing community programs centered on: Guidance, Education and a Better relationship with youth and Law Enforcement.
* Why - Are We Doing This Campaign & How Does LMH Work? –
This Campaign is necessary to raise needed funds to achieve our organization's goals in the most comprehensive way possible. We seek the current and future support from investors who believe in our mission and vision, who are able to partner fiscally, and possibly as professional mentors. Of course, we also seek the continued and future support of caring people within our target population of youth, their parents and professional adults.

II. STRATEGY
WHY THIS WORKS WHERE SOME HAVE NOT?
Our events are focused on outreach to a critical mass of youth, as opposed to focusing primarily on one-to-one mentoring. It is proven that our successes have bred other successes. For example, our proof is that parents have reported a significant raise in the self-esteem of their children. More proof is that a young man reports, that our LMH program and ongoing mentorship by our Executive Director Ronnique, has inspired him to work with and even overcome his handicap, to research and accomplish his goal of becoming an EMT for the NY Fire Department.
We are mindful, that there are not always enough mentors to go around, and that some youth may be harder to engage. We aim to provide them with influential information and statistics options that they can use immediately, to potentially live healthier happier lives. Our events promote insight, growth, and consequential thinking.
As we grow, our mentoring professionals will have enough clout, presence, notoriety, and professionalism to influence to influence even typically hard-to-reach youth. They will be diverse, multicultural, and directly reflect the communities where we work. This reflection provides youth with a sense of empowerment, hope, and self-esteem.
III. IMMEDIATE & LONG TERM SUCCESS MEASURES
The immediate goal is to save lives. The measure of success is the degree to which the life-saving information provided by LMH helps young people identify, then modify and improve their actions now.
The long-term goal is for young adults to benefit from the wisdom and knowledge by successful people – both of their own generation and preceding generations, to break cycles of crime, poverty and underachievement.
LMH will circulate surveys to evaluate each event’s success, what the audience learned or benefited from and enjoyed most, and garnering sights and suggestions for improving the LMH experience. We will then incorporate their feedback to keep programs as fresh and effective as possible. Past surveys show LMH's personal mentoring connections between speakers and teens work!

IV. OPERATIONS AND SUSTAINABILITY
LMH is in need of fiscal support in order to engage in sustainability efforts as well as manage the day-to-day functions of the organization. This specifically includes grant writers, clerical workers, event planners, and accountants. The sustainability of the program at present, relies heavily on the marketable visibility of our annual events. We aim to receive adequate funding in order to ensure that they are measurably successful. It is here, that a critical mass of at-risk youth can hear our message, and possibly match with available mentors.
V. GOALS
Like most non-profits, Learn My History Foundation must increase its Board of Directors and donor base to grow.
With more funding, we can obtain more functional equipment and initiate our ongoing youth programs. We can also acquire full and part-time staff / intern programs, and ultimately help more young people to prosper into successful happy individuals. Our annual events will help increase our number of professional mentors and reward youth for their achievements!
THANKS to our New York supporters! You know we originated in Manhattan and have NOT dissolved our NY Chapter. Once we rebuild here in Florida, we'll ALSO resume our Mentoring Fusions there as well.
