Society must band together to help children achieve

A column published in the Richmond Times-Dispatch on Nov., 16th spoke out about what many organizations are trying to do to help the youth of today make a better tomorrow.  Guest columnist B.H.B. Hubbard III spoke of how some children in today's society are not receiving the attention, education and care that they need to become well-rounded adults.
He says that "as a community, we cannot sit back and wait for others to fix theproblem. We all have to be proactive."


This is a view that is shared by the William Byrd Community House. They provide the right stuff to help them be self sufficient members of society. "William Byrd Community House strives to be a catalyst for transforming the lives of people, particularly children and youth, by helping them move from dependency toward self-sufficiency as quickly as possible."


It is our job to help these children and help these organizations who have a goal of making society better. The WBCH is a way that we can help this effort locally!
