BSFP


B.S.F.P is a nonprofit organization that aims to help youth reach heights they may have thought to be impossible. We empower them to understand that life is not a destination, it’s a journey and encourage them to take advantage of all it has to offer.

I grew up in a culture that lived by the "community raises up the young people." We didn't have such exposure to technology, and social media wasn't the mainstream (good, bad and indifferent). We were focused on school, good grades and making a better tomorrow. We also didn't have as many distractions as exist today that leave our youth bewildered and feeling out of place and unmotivated.

Today, if an individual doesn’t look a certain way, come from a certain economic status, have a certain style about them, they don't fit in. The desire to seek higher education is of less importance to youth today and school systems are losing the ability to keep them motivated and inspired. It’s hard to compete with what the world is offering as "immediate" but temporary gratification. 

Youth, today, are not as driven as they can be. They are unfulfilled, distracted, unmotivated and uninspired. 

They are being influenced by standards that:
Don’t reflect who they truly are,
Don’t provide direction for their success tomorrow,
Leave them disengaged,
Don’t create opportunities for them to think big beyond today

This shouldn't be the outlook of our future. I wanted to influence and help change this perception and reignite purpose in our youth. Reestablish the drive that inspires them and rebuilds our communities.

Brothers & Sisters’ of Faith with Purpose (BSFP) is an Incorporated 501(c)3 non-profit organization that was established to help inspire and motivate youth to strive for more thereby creating more generations of goal getters.

Friendships

That's why there is such power in true friendships! "It’s natural to lose friends over time. People change. People move. All too often, few take their place." "We become known more by our titles, our accomplishments, or our kids. Increasingly we become known by what we do more than who we are." That's because today people don't know who we are...they only know / see what we do.   True friends know who you are (when the curtains are closed), they know who you can and will be and support your journey. They ask you the tough questions to push you. They correct you without fear of offending. They challenge you to take risks for your betterment and uplifting. They give you permission to be who you are, not less. They don't allow you to be stagnant. They encourage you to move forward and grow. They value you for who you are more than what you do. They help you reach new heights and your potential.  We don't get offended by their correcti

How about some superfoods to add to your meals?

o   Tomatoes They contain lycopene, an antioxidant rarely found in other foods. Studies suggest that it could protect the skin against harmful UV rays, prevent certain cancers, and lower cholesterol. Plus, tomatoes contain high amounts of potassium, fiber, and vitamin C.   o   Blueberries These berries are full of phytonutrients that neutralize free radicals (agents that cause aging and cell damage). The antioxidants in these berries may also protect against cancer and reduce the effects of age-related conditions such as Alzheimer's disease or dementia. o   Black Beans A cup of black beans packs 15 grams of protein, with none of the artery-clogging saturated fat found in meat. Plus, they're full of heart-healthy fiber, antioxidants, and energy-boosting iron. o   Oats Full of fiber, oats are a rich source of magnesium, potassium, and phytonutrients. They contain a special type of fiber that helps to lower cholesterol and prevent heart disease. Magnesium work

Get Started - Now!

Most of us go through life always giving up or never getting started on something, because we are waiting for the “time to be right” to start doing something worthwhile.  STOP WAITING! The time will never be “just right.” Start where you stand, and work with whatever tools you may have at your command, and better tools will be found as you go along.
