N'SHAPE YOUTH

Partnering with the Greater Enrichment Program (GEP), a non-profit After School organization in Charlotte, NC for inner city youth, N’shape with’N YOUTH provides the tools necessary to lead healthy and fit lifestyles.

Our program provides Funky Fit classes, nutritional guidance, journals, fun activities like grocery shopping and greenway walks, as well as monthly rap sessions with qualified specialists. Realizing the influence of parents in a child’s life, we encourage them to participate in all programming, making healthy lifestyle choices a way of life for the family.

N’shape with’N YOUTH serves children in the GEP which is open to those CMS K through 5th grade students residing in areas designated by the City of Charlotte as “City within a City (CWAC) geographical area. Areas include: Ashley Park Elementary, Bruns Elementary, Merry Oaks Elementary, Southview Recreational Center, and Wilmore Recreational Center.

This is a year round program to children who continue to attend during the Summer months. For others, it’s an after school program during the school year only.

The other element of N’shape with’N YOUTH is our annual SHOE DRIVE. Each Christmas Holiday, we provide over 200 pairs of shoes for the children of GEP. However, there are over 400 children needing shoes. It’s our goal to provide shoes and fitness for them all.

"I just want to thank you for who you are. I had a terrible past two days but I was determined to go to class last night and I felt great when I left. You probably don't realize how many people you touch just by your kind spirit. Even though there was no gospel playing and formal worshipping going on there was definitely a healing spirit in that class last night. It's just good to laugh sometimes. Thanks for all you do. Keep it up! Stay Blessed!"
