#WeKeepUsSafe
Whether it's our after-school enrichment and tutoring programs, or life-saving work with Ward 6 Mutual Aid, our mission remains the same: provide Black and Brown youth and families the same resources and opportunities that others in DC already have. Today and into the future.
"No kid should depend on the love of others to have the things they deserve. If that exists in the world, then it exists for everyone."
Maurice Cook, Executive Director of Serve Your City and Lead Organizer with Ward 6 Mutual Aid

‼️ At the heart of #ServeYourCityDC/#Ward6MutualAid’s mission is the belief that every young person deserves love, support, and opportunity. Through our partnerships with local businesses and community organizations, we ensure equitable access to life-changing, year-round programs that inspire creativity and broaden horizons.🚣🏿♂️ One of our proudest youth programming collaborations is with Unity Boat Club, which brings rowing opportunities to at-promise Black and Brown youth across #WashingtonDC. This program opens pathways to college, keeps students active, and nurtures environmental awareness. As our Tutoring and Youth Enrichment Program Coordinator, Miranda Mlilo, shares: “Our partnership with #UnityBoatClub has been amazing! It provides kids with the opportunity to explore a new activity outdoors, connect with peers, and try something new—all while participating in a sport that is excellent for their health. Our students have had the chance to travel out of state and advance in the sport, fostering a sense of accomplishment and pride. Coach Brook Yimer, President and Director of Youth Programs at Unity Boat Club, has worked closely with our families to ensure our students' success. We encourage more students to join this unique opportunity and aim to expand what’s possible with Unity Boat Club.”🌊 Unlocking potential and creating opportunities—We Can't Be Stopped! ✊🏿📲 To learn more about our rowing program and other extracurricular offerings through our Free School for Unlimited Youth program, email us at youthenrichment@serveyourcitydc.org.💻 Show your #solidarityNOTcharity and support our community partner, @unityboatclub! 🔗 Visit unityboatclub.org for more information.
