“The Essence of Life is to Serve Others and Do Good.”
Our History
Founded in 2018 by six New Jersey natives, 908 Visionaries is a community based, youth centered nonprofit organization geared to addressing community challenges through outreach and education in New Jersey. We offer a dynamic youth program that mentors youth, ages 13-18 years old from historically excluded communities. Our youth program provides youth with access to educational workshops and resources. We also host community events to empower families and children.
Community Empowerment
908 Visionaries Inc host community events to meet the needs of the local NJ Communities. To date we have hosted:
Food & Hygienic Drives: where we provide basic necessities to our neighbors without addresses including under-served families and children.
Annual Back to School Community Day: Our annual Back to School Community Day and Drive promotes literacy and education for young people in the city of Plainfield and equips them with school essentials to start their school year off strong. To date, we have provided thousands of school supplies to the local community in Plainfield, NJ.
