Our Mission- Why We Are Here

As residents of Surry we face numerous challenges in our community. Young people are in need of positive activities and strong role models. Many people are struggling with financial problems, relationship issues, and loneliness. Divisions of race and background fragment our community. That is why we are here, and that is why we are busy . . .

Developing Young People

Helping all People

Creating Community


Our Values

These are the qualities that we aspire to portray as we serve others. They are the things that are important to us.

Sharing Life

We live life together. We work together. We learn together. We play together. We serve together. We share our hard times and our triumphs knowing that life is better together than alone.

Service

We are always ready to give to others, to help others, to point them in the right direction

Simplicity

We choose to live life simply. We value people over things, comfort, and entertainment. We commit our time, our finances, and our energy to being people who love people and never people who love things.

Sincerity

We live with honesty and transparency. We will always be real with people. We will be open about our needs and challenges in life and not cover ourselves with insincerity, tradition, or habit.

Selflessness

We will give ourselves other. We will always treat others the way we want to be treated. We will put others first
