Hi, my name is Clifton smith and I founded youth-full in 2020 to provide an answer. An answer to problems that I've seen my entire life while growing up in the bay area. I grew up in a low-income household. We often didn't have food or a place of our own to live, so you could say that I've been through some hardships. But despite all of the difficulties that life has thrown my way, I remain optimistic and passionate about helping children and youth reach their full potential and I feel it starts with support and education. Education is important to me because it's one of the few things that can truly help someone escape poverty or homelessness. With the right support, youth can do anything they set their minds to!
