COLUMBUS, OH – Columbus organizations Seeds of Caring, St. Stephen’s Community House, and Next Level Trainings are joining forces to achieve a common goal: empowering Columbus’ youth. Next Level Trainings provides experiential leadership programs that support people in unlocking their power, passion, and purpose. Seeds of Caring empowers kids to create a kinder community with their hearts, hands, and minds. St. Stephen’s Community House has the mission to strengthen families and empower the Linden community.

WHAT: Community leaders from Next Level Training will be revitalizing classroom space for kids programming. Lead by a local mural artist, Caitlyn Rack. Volunteers will makeover the entire space to be inspirational and age-appropriate. Storage areas will also be constructed and child-sized tables and chairs will be donated to create a functioning space for Seeds of Caring to conduct their programming. The space will be used by Seeds of Caring’s 1,700 youth leaders and allow growth for up to 2,000 more.
WHEN: Saturday, March 16th 9:00 a.m. – 3:30 p.m. Media availability: 10:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m.
WHERE:St. Stephen’s Community House - 1500 E 17th Avenue, Columbus, OH 43219
WHY: The event is being held as part of a 24-day-long fundraising campaign by Next Level Trainings’ current leadership class. To further its mission of empowering kids to create a kinder community with their hearts, hands, and minds, Seeds of Caring has forged a new partnership with St. Stephen's Community House. St. Stephen's has graciously provided classroom space for Seeds of Caring to utilize in delivering meaningful youth service programming to benefit Columbus-area youth, the Linden community, and numerous Columbus-area non-profit organizations. As kids learn about hunger in our community, make blankets for hospitalized children, or share conversation with seniors, they build confidence in their ability to contribute. In the end, we all benefit: our kids develop a heart for service, our families are united by a common purpose, and our community becomes a more compassionate place to live, work, and grow.
