Education Development

College Tours

The Youth Advisory Council participates in College Tours every year to help youth learn and develop leadership skills, social skills, career opportunities, and explore college. YAC will typically visit anywhere from 4-8 universities and colleges in Florida every year. Those institutions include but are not limited to the following:

Tutoring Services

BMYD provides tutoring services to students of all ages in the comfort of their home or in a mutually agreed location. BMYD tutoring allows for face-to-face, private sessions where students feel confident and relaxed. In most cases, they quickly become eager and willing learners when the pressure is removed from the situation. Areas of frustration become areas of success.

Scholarships

The BMYD Scholarship Program was created to recognize talented students. BMYD is passionate about helping our youth develop and grow into productive citizens. Therefore, our organization provides high school seniors with financial resources for college. It is our vision to cultivate young minds for excellence and success by providing opportunities, skills, experience, exposure and positive challenges so that they may be encouraged in their pursuit of continuing education that will develop and enhance their business and workforce skills in the community.

Securing Economic and Social Progress

Studies have shown that economic growth has lifted millions of people out of poverty in addition to improving their lives. However, human development as a whole is incomplete. Unfortunately, some people lack basic human necessities, a healthy environment, the opportunity to reach their full potential and/or steps to improve their quality of life.

As a society we are failing to address these needs regardless of what the economic numbers say. We must begin to invest in people and investing in people will require the removal of barriers in place. We want to help people so they can move forward and be self-sufficient. We refuse to accept that people who live in poverty will always be poor. We understand that we cannot solely rely on the government to find ways to develop our people.

We must come together and share the responsibility of providing opportunities of success for our community as a community. This will begin to improve the well-being of our communities which in turn will contribute to securing economic prosperity and social progress.
