LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) — An educational initiative started by a Louisville nonprofit is partnering with a San Francisco nonprofit to broaden education resources available for kids in the program.
Christopher 2X’s Game Changers has devoted resources to supporting children impacted by gun violence with the Future Healers program, which is a partnership between the Game Changers, UofL Hospital’s Trauma Institute and students at the University of Louisville School of Medicine. The goal of the program is to help Louisville children who have been impacted by violence in their neighborhoods to build a better future.
Future Healers Kiddos Medical Program is an educational initiative that introduces children to medicine and science as a way to provide opportunity and learning to build upon their future.
The initiative announced Saturday plans to partner with San Francisco-based Mission:Brain Foundation (Bridging Resources and Advancing International Neurosurgery).
Mission:Brain has 109 chapters across 27 countries as they enhance students access to neurosurgical care and education.
“This partnership is truly beyond our wildest dreams,” 2X said in a news release. “The knowledge, global reach, and expertise of Mission:Brain will elevate our students’ learning capacity and expose them to cutting-edge insights in neurological sciences.”
With the partnership, the Future Healers Journey to Wellness workbook journal will be incorporated into Mission:Brain’s signature NeuroCamp program.
Mission:Brain will also extend NeuroCamp resources to over 800 children in the Future Healers curriculum.
“Our partnership with Future Healers Kiddos Medical Program reflects our shared commitment to empowering children through education and healthcare,” said Norah Hill with Mission:Brain in a news release. “By combining Mission:Brain’s international reach with Future Healers’ proven success at the local level, we can inspire thousands of kids to dream big and pursue futures in medicine and science.”
Future Healers and Mission:Brain plan to connect students across states and countries through virtual programs together.
