Helping good kids in bad circumstances

Did you know that 74% of adult prisoners were once youth offenders?

It's a very sad statistic; one that Frederick Dryden and the volunteers and staff of Liberty For Youth is committed to changing. On Wednesday February 5, Frederick and Sony, a participant in the mentoring program (and a great basketball player!), spoke at our Rotary meeting. We were inspired by their conviction and impressed by their accomplishments. Our club president John Baxter presented a cheque for $500 to help Liberty For Youth change even more lives, and thanked them for making a difference in the Hamilton Community.
