Corner Team Apart, Together
“You may not control all the events that happen to you, but you can decide not to be reduced by them.”
― Maya Angelou, Letter to My Daughter
Youth Champions Club Live! is Corner Team's response to a new reality of needing to meet our mission in new and creative ways. While the COVID-19 emergency has forced our physical doors closed, Corner Team staff, volunteers,friends, and partners are working hard to continue programs that build strong minds, strong bodies, and strong communities. We are excited to offer a virtual platform to continue Youth Champions Club, a free after school program for Baltimore's students that integrates academic support, boxing and fitness, and leadership development. For the duration of the school year, Corner Team is expanding its services to all of our students ages 8-18 by providing grade level-appropriate STEM and leadership workshops, tutors and homework help, boxing and fitness classes, and opportunity for social engagement.
