"Before joining For The Better Inc, I struggled with my grades and self-confidence. Through their mentorship program, I found a mentor who believed in me. Now, I'm excelling in school and have a clearer vision for my future."
STEPHANIE
"The health education workshops taught me so much about nutrition and mental health. I feel more in control of my well-being and motivated to pursue my dreams."
MONESHA
"Attending the cooking class was a very exciting experience; everything is explained in intricate
detail. We learned how to cook meals that are balanced and very nutritious. This experience
gave me the opportunity to explore healthier options with the same delicious taste. The cooking
class was a community where we were free to express and connect in a friendly environment.
Joining the cooking class was one of the best decisions I’ve made, and now I can take what I’ve
learned and educate others," said Monesha, age 17, participant for three years
MAKAYLA
"While being in school, there really wasn’t a lot of clubs for the school. Ms. Rasheeda was the
nurse practitioner that made it possible for kids to learn how to cook and make sure we ate
healthy; she taught us about portion control. Cooking Club was a fun experience to learn about
what you need to stay healthy, how much you need to eat, and more. Ms. Rasheeda taught me
a lot about eating healthy and made sure that I was comfortable mentally and physically. I
enjoyed Cooking Club because it was a space where I felt comfortable enough with my friends
to discuss new recipes and more. She taught us that just because you don’t feel full doesn’t
mean to eat more. She also taught me how to embrace new foods because I’m a picky eater;
she tried to expand my taste buds. I loved Cooking Club and always will thanks to Ms.
Rasheeda,
