My name is Tristan Walters, I am 16 years old and I joined SYEP because I wanted to occupy myself for the summer and I wanted to have some job experience for future purposes. During my time of SYEP, I hope to understand jobs work and understand what goes in the community like my own and how I can help to improve it with the help of others. I just want to see a peaceful neighborhood because the world as it is isn't that great of a place but if I can change at least a small piece of it I'll try my best.
My name is Abigail Astwood. I'm a well rounded 16 year old who is always looking for a way to better myself. That is why I joined the Summer Youth Program. Last year I joined SYEP and had a great experience; I meet lots of diverse people, challenged myself, and learned valuable skills all while having fun. That is why i joined again this year. I aspire to use this asset to my fullest advantage when considering career options.
Hello my name is Montez Moses. I'm 14 years old turning 15 in Oct,28,18. I love to draw, dance, rap, play sports, watch movies, and relax with friends. I came to summer youth and chose SYEP not only for the money and it sounded easy but to learn more about my surroundings and how a kid like me with lots of help from others make it better. I would love to have a clean environment where people clean up after themselves, no fights, no police brutalities, and just no bad vibes.
My name is Destiny Stevens and I am currently 17 years old . I will be attending college this year and decided to join SYEP for the last time before I enter into college. I decided this because I wanted to get enough job experience before I start a new job in college. I also know that I want to major in business management/ marketing and this job fits the criteria which would better improve my skills in my college courses. I also needed a little bit of money to help pay for things like clothes , food , and stuff for my new dorm room. This will probably be my last year in SYEP before I get a real version of the business world. I hope someday I am able to own my own business and be able to care of my family, community and the poor. MY goal is to have enough money to help others because if I help others it'll just bring about positivity. I also want to become successful in YouTube so that I can understand marketing a little more so that I am able to market my own products.
Our desire is for the community to come together and help each other.
