Xtreme Dreams Foundation of ATLANTA is a non-profit organization dedicated to fostering an environment where all youth can thrive and reach their full potential. We focus on supporting at-risk youth through mentorship and enrichment opportunities, and our aim is simple: empower young people and help them build bridges to success. Families in Kingsland and St. Mary's are part of that work.
Our Programs
Everything we run is built around the same idea — give a young person someone in their corner, something useful to do, and a reason to keep showing up. These are the programs we offer:
- Mentorship — pairing youth with adults who stay consistent, listen, and keep expectations high.
- Jobs programs — work readiness and real opportunities, so a first job isn't out of reach.
- Enrichment programs — activities and experiences outside the classroom that widen what a kid thinks is possible.
- Youth martial arts program — discipline, confidence and fitness, taught in a setting where every child is welcome.
- Charitable fundraising raffle — the campaign that helps pay for all of the above.
Our mission is to empower youth and help them build bridges to success.
Events and Enrichment in Kingsland and St. Mary's
When we come to Kingsland or St. Mary's, it's usually for an event — a booth, a giveaway, a community gathering, a martial arts demonstration, a sign-up table for one of our programs. Families walk up, ask what we do, and leave with a way to get their child involved. That's the whole point of doing it in person rather than from behind a form.
If you're a parent in the area, the easiest way in is to register your child for a program. If you're a business, a church, a school or a civic group, we're glad to talk about hosting or sponsoring something local. And if you have a few hours to give, mentorship is where the need is greatest — it costs nothing but attention, and attention is the thing our young people are shortest on.
The Charitable Fundraising Raffle
Our raffle is the live campaign right now, and it's the most direct way to support the foundation. Every ticket goes toward keeping mentorship, jobs and enrichment programming running for the youth who need it. You do not have to live in Fayetteville to take part — supporters in Kingsland and St. Mary's are just as welcome to buy in.
Tickets are available online. If your workplace, team or congregation wants to take a block of tickets or help sell them locally, reach out and we'll set that up with you.
