UCAN has been involved in the community for over 2 years by extending their hands and volunteering with various schools, other non-profit organizations and the community. UCAN is a 501c3 non-profit organization whose mission is to strengthen young adolescents through mentoring, personal development, and education which will bring forth a positive impact in the community. By strengthening the connection with our adolescents, we enhance their personal lives by helping them to form a brighter future. UCAN focus on adolescents ages 8-18. UCAN stands for “You Can Achieve Now”. UCAN has reached great heights in a short time. Their works in the community never goes unnoticed because their focus remains on the youth.

Founder and President, Leshundra Finley, has reached out to Gordon Elementary and Dave Wells Community Center to become a part of UCAN. Gordon Elementary was adopted by UCAN September 13, 2006 and has been actively involved with their growth. UCAN continues to seek financial sponsorship to help aid our youth so they might stay actively involved in programs offered by UCAN. Our programs involve community outreach, image development, financial planning, college planning, and career workshops which all affect our youth today.

We are giving back to the community in hopes of improving our society. We hope you or your company will be willing to make a difference by donating your time, a facility, finances and/or products or equipment that will make our events and programs more successful. We just don’t talk about what we do, we actually do what we say.

The difference between the present and our future is YOU. Are you willing to make a difference?
