- As a required minimum two week intensive for enrolled students, the Shaolin Kung Fu & Meditation program combines traditional martial arts training with guided mindfulness practice to promote physical health, self-discipline, and emotional resilience. The module typically runs twice weekly and includes structured training, mindfulness workshops, goal setting exercises, and facilitated group reflections. The curriculum emphasizes nonviolent conflict resolution, healthy coping strategies, and improved school engagement. Participants served: at-risk youth (completed at least the two-week module, meeting twice weekly). Physical health: Participants completed quarterly endurance assessments; involvement in the program contributed to reduction in school-reported behavioral incidents among participants.

To assess proficiency and promote leadership, we use brief skills checks and project reviews: students who demonstrate advanced proficiency are required to train beginner cohorts as part of a peer-teaching model and receive formal certificates of completion; youth who meet proficiency standards are eligible to serve as classroom volunteers during sessions. The program is delivered by trained volunteers and community mentors, outcomes are tracked via pre/post surveys, instructor assessments, project artifacts, and available school grade snapshots, and we maintain lesson plans, attendance logs, volunteer rosters, and project examples in program files to support evaluation and continuous improvement.Expenses $7,175 · grants $7,433

- International Aid Program - Our second-largest program serves crisis-affected communities in Sudan, Chad, South Sudan, and Uganda by delivering rapid emergency relief and longer-term recovery interventions. In 2025 we provided emergency food distributions reaching people across Darfur and eastern Chad; erected temporary family shelters in South Sudan that housed families for several months; and supported mobile clinic events that treated patients for malnutrition, water-borne illness, and minor injuries. WASH interventions included repairing community wells benefiting an estimated 2000 people, constructing communal latrines serving refugees, and running hygiene workshops that trained adults and youth (follow-up monitoring indicated a measurable decline in gastrointestinal illness among participants). For education and capacity building we refurbished one primary school serving students and ran teacher-training workshops on trauma-informed and emergency pedagogy that reached teachers now working across multiple sites. All activities were implemented through vetted local partners and community volunteers.Expenses $20,817 · grants $21,064
