Our mission

The Maurice AC Kirkwood Jr. Youth Foundation empowers youth to overcome barriers, unlock their potential, and inspire community transformation. Guided by the values of compassion, education, and equity, the Foundation provides targeted services and community engagement programs that address the urgent needs of underserved populations.

How you help

The Maurice AC Kirkwood Jr. Youth Foundation helps youth and families by providing direct, hands-on support that addresses both immediate needs and long-term success. We remove barriers to opportunity by supplying school supplies, offering scholarships to first-year college students, operating a community clothes closet, and assisting with daily living needs. Our programs also include autism-related support services, resources for low-income and underserved pregnant teens through initiatives such as our Community Baby Shower Workshop, and care packages for college students to ease financial stress. By combining essential resources with encouragement, education, and mentorship, we create stability, build confidence, and empower individuals to thrive academically, emotionally, and socially.
