To Whom It May Concern:

   Terrence Bell formed organization Project Impact in November 2006. Its purpose is to provide food and shelter for “At-risk” youth between 16 through 21 years old. Youth will be exposed to a variety of nurturing relationships that will encourage them to hold each other accountable; which in turn increase progress.  

  Project Impact will empower youth with knowledge through cultural awareness, economic empowerment, and information resources. Each youth will be assigned a personal mentor throughout the program.

  Participants will go through a rigorous screening process before they can be admitted into the program. Project Impact will collaborate with state agencies to recruit participants. The minimum time a youth should spend in the program is six months. The maximum time a youth should spend in the program is one year. Maximum time can be extended, if deemed necessary. It will depend on reason(s) if an extension will be granted. Rules and policies of the facility will be in place and enforced.  

  It is critical that basic needs are met for one to succeed to his/her fullest potential. When adequate living environment for “At-Risk” youth is provided, it meets basic needs and therefore, youth are more likely to succeed in life.

  Project Impact received its award letter dated November 12, 2007. The letter stated that Project Impact is exempt from federal income tax under Section 501 © (3). Project Impact is also qualified to receive tax deductible bequests, devises, transfers or gifts under section 2055, 2106 or 2522 of the code.

Project Impact is in need of donations. Any contribution to our organization will be greatly appreciated.
