2024 Well Said Mentoring Program
By Route 7 Orlando
What is Route 7 Orlando, you might ask?
Route 7 Orlando is a 501 (c) 3 nonprofit organization founded by a network of
gentlemen with the desire to develop both ourselves and our communities. We are
dedicated to holding one another accountable while working toward our goals and
contributing our time, talent, and resources back into the community. One of
the most significant ways we are fulfilling our mission is through our youth
mentorship program called Well Said.
Well Said is a 8-week after-school program that educates youths (ranging
from middle to high school ages) in the fundamentals of public speaking. By
using the power of words, this fresh new program inspires students to possess
the self-confidence to clearly articulate their wants to all audiences.
Empowering young people of color to uplift their own communities using our
three core values: enlighten, entertain,
and uplift!
Since 2020, we have partnered with the
Levy Hughes Boys and Girls Club of Central Florida to offer this FREE
opportunity for youth of the Parramore community. Many of the youths we mentor come
from financially disadvantaged families. That
is why we are reaching out to you to join us in supporting
our youth in the form of monetary support toward
providing meals and program supplies for students each week. We know that a hungry student is a
distracted student, and we want to ensure that every student gets the very most
from their experience.
Well Said is guided by a committed group of volunteers and currently, our only sources of revenue are from organizational membership fees and donations received from generous individuals like you.
We
invite you to partner with us in supporting our community’s youth with this
unique opportunity.
