Project Success
An after-school, tutorial enrichment childcare program, Project Success serves children from the communities of Belleville, Brooklyn, East St. Louis, Cahokia Heights, Madison, Venice, and Washington Park each year. Project Success serves children 5-14 years of age who are in protective custody and are referred by the Department of Children and Family Services.
The program provides tutoring/homework assistance, enrichment activities, nutrition, field trips, along with recreational and cultural activities to participating youth.
Opportunities to Get Involved:
Project Success is looking for guest presenters to present age appropriate subject matter to youth ages 5-14 years. Potential topics can include, but are not limited to: Bullying, conflict resolution, positive self-esteem, character, financial literacy, and health and safety.
One hundred percent of the youth participating in Project Success are under the supervision of the State of Illinois Department of Children and Family Services. Program participants are always in need of hats, gloves, scarves, shoes, coats, undergarments, and clothing. Donations of arts and crafts supplies, board games, books, and school supplies are also needed.
