Can we really help the next generation or is it to late?
For 21 years now I've been reaching out to people trapped in the lifestyle of drugs and addiction. We at Extreme have focused on the next generation for the last 15 years. Before that I spent 6 years helping addicts out of that lifestyle. Thats when I saw a big need of people living in low income neighborhoods and unprivileged kids being taken advantage of. So thats when it was time to start Superkids, a program to build these kids up so they would choose the right path and say no to the life of drugs and crime. Well it's been amazing to see this program evolve each year.

Camp is coming fast and I'm reminded of the very large need to make a difference in these kids lives.

Can we make a difference? YES WE CAN! Most of the kids from the first year of Superkids have graduated and are in college now. It's truly amazing to see that we can help people make better choices and live a really productive life.
