“Providing Access for School Success”

I Am My Brother’s Keeper (IAMBK) is a non-profit organization that provides community afterschool programs for school-age youth from city and rural communities. 2024-25 programming includes academic tutoring, group/individual/family counseling, creative dance, rhythm band, leadership development, social skills development, and life management from 4-7 pm Monday-Thursdays. The organization is experiencing a demand for more services from families with limited to no access to transportation during hours of operation. In order to help IAMBK provide access to more youth from rural and working class families, please contribute to the purchase and support of 2 more vans, transportation staff, and program space. These vans will be used to pick up youth from Loachapoka, Auburn, Opelika, and surrounding communities. All contributions are welcome.

Goal: $125,000

Purpose: Vans, Transportation Staff, Facility costs

Deadline: October 31, 2025; Celebration Event – December 2025
