Momentum Collective Inc. is the recent recipient of grant funding from the Alexandria Fund for Human Services to support our MPWRD Afterschool Program. Through this funding we are able to provide afterschool arts education at no-cost, to over 200 youth across the city. We currently partner with the school system, the housing authority, and the recreation department to teach theater, dance, creative writing, and music at nine (9) locations. This yearlong program will help to develop budding artists and creatives while giving them a platform for self-expression and social-emotional development. This is our third year of running the program within the city and the newly received funding is an outgrowth of the program’s success to date.
