It’s a wrap! Summer 2026 Recap ☀️❤️ What an incredible summer! The Reconstructing Youth Foundation, INC. is proud to have successfully completed another impactful Summer Meals Program, helping minimize food insecurity across seven counties in Georgia by providing FREE nutritious meals to every child under the age of 18. This summer wasn’t just about serving meals—it was about ensuring children had access to the nourishment they needed to learn, grow, and thrive while school was out. Every meal served represents hope, compassion, and our continued commitment to strengthening our communities. None of this would have been possible without our dedicated staff, volunteers, community partners, sponsors, and the families who trusted us throughout the summer. Thank you for believing in our mission and helping us make a difference—one meal at a time. As we close out another successful summer, we remain committed to serving our communities year-round and continuing the fight against childhood hunger. Together, we are rebuilding communities, restoring hope, and changing lives. #ReconstructingYouthFoundation #EndingChildHunger #SummerMeals #Georgia #CommunityImpact FoodInsecurity ServingWithPurpose YouthFirst MakingADifference Nonprofit

Gearing Up for Another Great School Year! August was a month of reflection, preparation, and excitement for Reconstructing Youth Foundation, Inc. as we wrapped up an incredible summer and began preparing for the return of our FREE After-School Programs in September 2026. Celebrating a Successful Summer During the months of June and July, Reconstructing Youth Foundation was proud to provide approximately 2,000 FREE meals each day to children and families throughout the communities we serve. Our summer feeding programs allowed us to continue our commitment to helping minimize food insecurity and ensuring that children had access to nutritious meals while school was out. August gave our team an opportunity to unwind, regroup, and begin preparing for another busy and impactful school year. September: We’re Back! We are excited to announce that our FREE After-School Programs will officially resume the day after Labor Day! This school year, Reconstructing Youth Foundation will continue serving students and families throughout: Bibb County Lee County Randolph County Wilkerson County Our after-school programs are provided at NO COST to participating students and families and are designed to provide a safe, positive, and enriching environment for children beyond the traditional school day. As we prepare for our September launch, our team is working behind the scenes to revamp our programming, prepare our staff, coordinate with our community and school partners, and make sure we are ready to welcome our students back. Ready to Serve. Ready to Grow. Ready for September. From providing thousands of meals throughout the summer to preparing for another year of free after-school programming, our mission remains the same: to support children, strengthen families, and provide resources and opportunities that make a lasting difference in the communities we serve.We are incredibly grateful to our staff, volunteers, partners, supporters, and community members who continue to believe in the mission of Reconstructing Youth Foundation. September 2026, here we come! #RYF #ReconstructingYouthFoundation #RYFASP

September was another meaningful month for Reconstructing Youth Foundation, Inc. as we continued providing after-school educational activities and support to children throughout the communities we serve. Through our partnership with Wilkinson County School System and our continued work with schools across our service areas, RYF remains committed to creating safe, enriching opportunities for students beyond the traditional school day. This month, we were also grateful to receive a generous donation through the Aniya’s Angel for Good fundraising campaign. This support helped RYF continue providing our programs at no cost to the children and families we serve. Contributions like these allow us to provide students with educational support, enrichment opportunities, and access to nutritious meals. At RYF, we believe education and nutrition go hand-in-hand. Children learn best when their basic needs are met. Access to nutritious meals helps students maintain their energy, focus, and ability to participate in educational activities, while strong academic support helps build confidence and prepare them for a successful future. As we gear up for October, we are excited to expand our services throughout Bibb County. RYF will return to all of the Bibb County elementary schools we served last year, while also adding four additional elementary schools. This expansion will bring our total to 18 Bibb County elementary schools receiving our free services for the remainder of the school year. As we move into the fall, RYF remains dedicated to feeding minds, nourishing bodies, and strengthening communities—one child at a time. Thank you to our partners, donors, schools, families, staff, and volunteers for continuing to support our mission. #RYF #ReconstructingYouthFoundation #Freeservices #Freeafterschoolprogram

Thank you, Dr. Madge, for your heartfelt words! ❤️ We are truly honored to partner with Randolph County Schools. It is a privilege to serve your students and families, and we look forward to continuing our work together to build stronger students, stronger families, and brighter futures! ❤️ # RYF #ReconstructingYouthFoundation #RYFINC #FreePrograms

It takes approximately $156,000 to run all of our free summer programs. Out of the $156,000 we are trying to raise $30,000. This will help us implement our program seamlessly to thousands of children we serve across Georgia. While our programs are completely free to the families, they are not free to provide. Between meals, transportation, staffing, and daily operations, the need continues to grow each year. This funding will help us reach more children and ensure no one is left behind this summer. In the video, you’ll see a glimpse of what we do every day—serving meals, showing up for our kids, and hearing directly from them about what this program means. This is more than just a summer meal, camp or place. This is stability, nourishment, and opportunity. If you are able to support in any way, we would truly appreciate it. Every dollar makes a difference. Donate here: https://givebutter.com/summer-fun-ryf-mv8yfv Please share and help us reach our goal. Our donations are tax deductible. #RYF

The “Together We Thrive” community event was simply amazing. Thank you for allowing the Reconstructing Youth Foundation, Inc. to be a part of it.
