Meet Me Where I Am. (Columbia) We have specially trained men that go into communities between the hours of 1:00 a.m. and 4:00 a.m. and speak with the youth and young adults we find on the street. Our goal is to help guide our misguided young men and women in the right direction and to a better quality of life.
Unity Festival. (Columbia) A yearly diversity event where we invite everyone to come out and share the experiences of listening to many types of music and eating foods representative of different cultures. A great time to make friends and have kids enjoy a variety of games.
The Turning Point Fatherhood Summit. (Columbia) A yearly summit where we ask men to engage or re engage their children. We have found that healing this connection helps both the child and the man. We hope to be sponsoring Mr. Ray Upchurch and his production of Daddy Hunger "A message of redemption, hope & love"
Sisters Helping Sisters (Columbia) This project helps young and older women at Prescott Manor Apartment Complex (Columbia) in building skills that would be key in having a better quality of life.
Unity March Against Crime (Charleston) This an annual event where people from all over the S/E march together in unity against crime. Many organizations, companies and municipalities also are involved with this march.
Street Patrol (Charleston)This program helps to raise the morale and safety of the community; it also helps raise property values, if you live in a high crime neighborhood. Project Unity USA will coordinate with local law enforcement to provide more security to your neighborhood and will spend the time in your community to work with the citizens that are hanging out and try to get them into a program that can train them for a job or get them a high school G.E.D.
Summer Hire (Charleston) This program not only teaches our youth discipline, it also allows them to learn a skill that can be used later in life. It also gives them a sense of pride and accomplishment when they earn there own money. This program also keeps them off the streets and makes for a safer community. For the business it allows them to help strengthen our community by training and mentoring our youth.
Mentorship (Charleston)This program helps to raise the morale of student’s; it also allows them to be mentored by someone that has experienced the hardships of life in the workplace. Not only will students learn from someone that has experienced what they will face in the future, but they will see that they are of value to the community by having someone take the time out of there day to teach them how to become successful in the future. This will also increase the graduation rate in our state and reduce the drop out rate as well this program also keeps students off the streets and makes for a safer community. For the tutor or mentor it allows them to make a difference in someone’s life.
Reach Back (Charleston soon to come to Columbia)Project Unity USA works to form partnerships with local schools. Schools that agree to participate in the Reach Back Program will tutor and mentor other schools that partner with Project Unity. Project Unity will use College Students to reach back and tutor and mentor high school students, and High School students will reach back and tutor and mentor middle school students, and middle school students will reach back and tutor and mentor elementary school students.
