Higher Values for Youth has helped make possible many scholarships for youth who attend Catholic/Christian elementary and secondary schools in the Center City Area of San Diego, California. Many of these scholarships are made possible by donations from the businesses that serve the area and an annual Auction dinner and other donations.
These efforts are supporting those youth who have values and wish to better the world that they are living in. Working with John Paul the Great Catholic University here in San Diego and Bruce Conover & Co. a DVD has been made which shows how this type education of our youth is working. Youth are excited to help others, learn more because they are happy and do not have reservations about being leaders in our modern world. They have that extra spirit that comes from Values that work.
Higher Values For Youth also supports the teachers in these Catholic/Christian schools. These men and women have used their talents to teach from their wisdom and strengths our young future great citizens. They teach our youth to overcome despair and depression and foster a sense of worth that comes from their faith in action.
