About This Cause

We believe there are societal standards introduced to our youth that not acceptable, and We believe there are societal standards introduced to our youth that not acceptable, and we will teach them to rise over them. We are a community development organization that focuses on the development of youth in an effort to develop communities. We operate under the premise that if we develop our youth into productive citizens of Baltimore City, our communities will always be in great hands. Each one of our principles is put into action with programming at our center as well as our seasonal initiatives. Our initiatives support our belief that education, career development, community outreach, and citizenship are important foundations in young lives. Rise Over Education – Society does not seem to provide our children with the best opportunities to succeed educationally, as evidenced by initiatives such as ‘no child left behind’. We believe that our children are capable of achieving anything they put their minds to; therefore, we provide our programs and initiatives that support education and achievement. Rise Over Violence – Unfortunately, Baltimore has become known for violence. Furthermore, violence against young minorities is on the rise on the heels of the deadliest summer in the city’s history (2015). We firmly stand against all forms of violence, against all citizens, especially women and children. Our programs provide safe spaces for children designed to keep them away from violent activity. Rise Over Poverty – Minorities in urban areas are exposed to many signs of poverty. From food deserts to vacant homes, our children are indoctrinated to see poverty as the standard for their lives. Our programs and initiatives are designed to expose our youth to the reality that they deserve more, and that we will improve our communities. Mentoring Program: REGAL Women and ROYAL Men Internship Program Mission Statement: The REGAL Women and ROYAL Men Internship Program seeks to provide an environment filled with opportunities to be uplifted and encouraged educationally, spiritually, and culturally for underserved Baltimore City youth by providing monthly workshops and outings that are fun, educational, and life altering. Vision Statement: To provide Baltimore City youth with the tools to become successful and marketable towards their career desires, while also inspiring them to become entrepreneurial leaders in their communities by increasing social skills, cultivating talent, and the developing their capacity to serve others. OBJECTIVES Establish an internship program that facilitates adolescent development throughout middle and high school. Build relationships through the mentoring process that develops youth into productive citizens who add to the surrounding community. Cultivate life skills that will directly contribute to the growth of positive, successful, educated CEOs of Fortune 500 Companies. ETHOS REGAL- Righteous, Empowered, Gracious, Aspiring, Leading ROYAL- Righteous, Outstanding, Young, Ambitious, Leading REGAL Women and ROYAL Men is a free monthly internship program for 26 youth ages 11-17. ROSE, Inc. and Shiloh Christian Community Church have collaborated in an effort to produce entrepreneurs in the workforce, and leaders in our communities. We invite volunteers from our community as well as college students to join us in this endeavor. Additionally, the programs provide cultural events, such as trips to museums, plays, and sporting events for our youth. Furthermore, we provide quarterly workshops for parents in job readiness and parenting skills. We often solicit volunteer guest speakers for these workshops. We envision our young ladies to have morals, values, and manners. We aspire to help them to be confident and develop standards. Knowing that they are beautiful, intelligent, and talented, we seek to assist them in achieving their goals, dreams, and aspirations no matter what they may be. Our young women are our future. We envision our young men to have morals, values, and manners. Our boys stand out for their interesting personalities, talents, and intelligence. They are energetic, curious, and destined to achieve whatever they desire in life. Our boys are our future. Our youth embody the REGAL Women and ROYAL Men definitions. As such, we should have high standards for them, and they should have high standards for themselves. Society’s standards for our children are not enough. Society does not believe in our children as we do; therefore, we (as parents and mentors) must accept the responsibility to nurture our children in such a way that they know their worth. We must encourage them to be the men and women they were created to be, and rise over the subpar standards of society. The youth of today are bold, intelligent, and fiery. We are charged to cultivate that energy into positive actions. This program will teach our children that no matter who is on their right or left (man or woman), in unity there is support, leadership, and achievement. REGAL/ROYAL seek to: improve cultural sensitivity, promote youth and young adult development, cultivate entrepreneurial talent, and develop future community leaders.
