The Taylor Foundation hasn't added a story.
LAS VEGAS, a city that attracts the world with GLITZ and GLAMOUR also CAPTIVATES its own YOUTH.
- Lowest graduation rates in the country
- A lack of activites for the under 21
OUR FIRST ROUND OF FUNDING GOES TO:
The ENGAGE Project
We are upgrading the Sports Center for Las Vegas Youth just south of the strip in the current 100,000 square ft building. In addition, we aim to add 15 different activites to the other 80 acres. This is a 100% community funded endeavor so we can keep it cost effective for all to use.
Our goal is to tie the use of the facility to a student's GPA. If their GPA does not meet a decided upon average, we will pair them up with a mentor to motivate them.
The Foundation is funding the ENGAGE project to provide a facility full of adrenaline based activities that improve self-esteem and self-concept in a safe, monitored environment.
We have already funded the first add on: RC Tracks Las
Vegas-
Opening Mid May.

Las Vegas is building a city for the world to enjoy, but lacks in building a community that enjoys the city. Las Vegas is an amazing place for those OVER the age of 21. Our goal is to make it a great city for the children who grow up here as well.
We have always believed that Las Vegas has the ability to fulfill any destiny the mind can imagine. We hope to use our life experiences to encourage and support the imagination of our kids, giving them all the tools necessary to be successsful adults who are able to contribute positively to society.
MENTORS
The Foundation has been paying for detox services to get several
youths off of controlled substances in addition to helping with
housing, job placement and court appointments.
We pay for
counseling, and the "I am powerful program" for youth and
families. We are working with the city and school district to train
mentors that will give us their time to change a life.
