In 2020, amidst the upheaval of the pandemic, Ron Atkinson had a vision to create a nonprofit organization, YESUSA Transformational Cities, which would address the widening challenges faced by underserved youth and families in our community.  YESUSA would be different from other nonprofits, because Ron is a firm believer that one organization cannot do the work alone. COLLABORATION and UNITY shifts the climate and outcomes of our COMMUNITIES and YOUTH.

 

The collaborative Community Classroom Project was born from this vision. Now, YESUSA functions as the lead nonprofit in the collaborative COMMUNITY CLASSROOM PROJECT featuring JED White LLC, GOing2COLLEGEisEZ, Let's Make a Difference, and many others. Ron understands the importance of UNITY! Unity of mind and purpose of the collaborative partners is bringing opportunities to our youth/families which has been out of reach for many, including Character Development, Values Based Leadership training, College/Career Preparedness, Parent Engagement/Education, Trauma Healing, and even Athletic Skills Development.

 

With your partnership and support, we are poised to make a meaningful difference, one campus, one community, and one life at a time. Together, we can create a ripple effect of positive change that resonates far beyond our immediate reach, impacting lives and shaping futures for generations to come.
