All For One’s vision is to generationally improve under-developed communities around the world through focused efforts in developing children. By providing comprehensive education and mentoring, All For One’s goal is to create empowering environments full of possibility for children and seniors.
Interactions, our intergenerational program, focuses on bringing together seniors and children in a variety of activities, from singing to coloring, dance, reading, crafts and history projects. Operating primarily in Illinois, Interactions is now active in Florida, New Jersey, New York and California with plans to be nationwide by the end of 2006.
Internationally, All For One works with non-governmental organizations to create Child Prosperity Centers (CPCs) in third world countries. CPCs benefit local educational and childhood development in rural and urban areas alike. For example, All For One partners with local primary age day care centers to provide educational supplies and teaching materials. CPCs such as a library would serve long-term educational needs and facilitate day-to-day learning across age groups.
