Hello Future Supporters,
BUBGreat needs your support to help our youth create for themselves a life of greatness. We are confident that through empowerment and holistic education youth will establish clarity, inner stability, and develop greater physical, mental, and emotional health. Research shows that despite the odds many youth face growing up in deprived situations, success is determined by social competence, problem solving skills, autonomy, sense of purpose, and belief in a bright future. This is why we strongly cater to helping youth improve significantly in all these areas and much more.
Why should you care?
Escalating stress levels among children and teens exacerbates mental disorders, substance abuse, dropouts, and crime. Over nine million children in the U.S. are on anti-depressant medication, over four million children have been diagnosed with ADHD, and the number three cause of death among teenagers is suicide.
The more internal assets that youth have, positive values, social competencies, positive identity, and commitment to learning, will determine better emotional, mental, and physical health, and a higher succeeding rate in school.
Over the past three decades, childhood obesity rates in America have tripled, and today, nearly one in three children in America are overweight or obese. The numbers are even higher in African American and Hispanic communities, where nearly 40% of the children are overweight or obese. If we don't solve this problem, one third of all children born in 2000 or later will suffer from diabetes at some point in their lives. Many others will face chronic obesity-related health problems like heart disease, high blood pressure, cancer, and asthma.
