Seeds of Independence is a mentor and volunteer-based nonprofit organization committed to helping at risk youth in Maine reach their full potential as independent, productive members of society. The organization combats juvenile delinquency and positively affects the school dropout rate in our state by operating numerous programs aimed at mentoring at risk youth. Seeds of Independence is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization.
The organization was built on three effective and previously independent programs, Rebound, Jump Start, and a Service Learning trip in the Dominican Republic. Additional programs have been added over the last 3 years including, Beyond Long Creek Youth Center, Teen Parenting Group, and School Peer Mentors.
Seeds of Independence would like to thank you in advance for your volunteer or financial support. Your efforts and generosity help us continue to offer programs that change the lives of some of our most forgotten, and potentially most valuable resources.
