Who We Are
About FTOH
We operate based on a mission to “be Jesus” to Williamson County’s inner-city youth.
Our goal is to bring physical and spiritual hope to low-income youth within our community by instilling in them critical life skills. We provide academic assistance, mentoring, recreation and spiritual growth opportunities for youth Kindergarten through 12th grade in the form of weekly educational and vocational classes.
We meet 4 nights each week, and Saturdays, and we supply transportation to and from our programs, as well as a hot meal each night. In addition to our regular programming of weekly courses, we provide college entrance test prep and college application assistance, which is a key service within our organization.
