WHAT WE DO
WHY NOT CARE
Why Not Care, INC is a 501c3 non-profit organization geared towards providing beneficial resources for the homeless, the disenfranchised, everyday people, or businesses and community organizations that are in need of supplemental assistance. From the distribution of Care Packs filled with everyday essentials for homeless and unfortunate individuals, to providing creative and educational services for our partnering organizations - Why Not Care is essentially a dedicated network of people who are able and willing to offer their resources and services to help others who are in need.
CARE TALKS
We coordinate with local schools and community centers in low-income communities to talk about community engagement and how the youth can be the future leaders in this world. We also speak about different ways they can motivate and inspire themselves along with their friends and family through communication and goal setting techniques. We bring the Growth and Goals Mindset series.
We have spoken at Marta Valle HS, LES PREP, Educational Alliance boys and girls club, Boys club of NY, The Urban Assembly Academy of Government and Law, MMCC, Grand st. Settlement, District 1 Community Education Council, NYC DOE.

GROWTH AND GOALS
The lessons disseminated in this motivational program should be easily transferable to school, after-school and real-life scenarios. The participating motivational coaches are trained and experienced professionals in their respective fields and are dedicated to educating and inspiring. The goal is to develop a mind set, making them socially and professionally ready for the real-world the minute they receive their diplomas, or they wake from their dreams of being that successful leader they were born to be. We promote growth and goals in our youth and community.
