Community Leaders Share Why They Support City Youth Matrix

City Youth Matrix is focused on empowerment this month! Without the outpour of support and collective effort, we are unable to empower each other and our youth. We asked some esteemed professionals from various sectors in our community why they choose to support our cause. Check out what they shared with us in the quotes out below.

“City Youth Matrix stands out among the non-profits supported through our Community Promotion Promotions Grants not by creating a new opportunity, but by creating new connections to opportunities that already exist. And those connections are strengthening our youth, their families, and our community.”
Michael C. O'Connor
Mayor, The City of Frederick

"I choose City Youth Matrix because it enables our invisible children to flourish in the light of our community"
Julio Menocal
Menocal Family Practice

“We have supported City Youth Matrix from their beginning because their goals align with Delaplaine Foundation’s mission to enrich families and communities. CYM recognizes the value and powerful, positive potential in each child by facilitating pathways to growth and development through building diverse relationship networks that provide encouragement, education and support. CYM rocks!”
Marlene Young
President, Delaplaine Foundation Inc.
