About AIM
Founded December 1st, 2022
AIM is a Lee University service club developed by college students to empower the rising generation through Trauma Informed Care focused mentorship. Built on the core values of consistency, connection, compassion, and community, AIM brings forth opportunities to impact the lives of the kids and teens within the Boys and Girls Club.
Our vision is a world where young college leaders are mentoring the rising generations with positivity, passion, and purpose resulting in closing the generational gaps that are apparent in our society.
Our dream is to provide the volunteers needed, the material needs, and the spiritual guidance to the kids of the Boys & Girls Club. AIM's goal is to guide the BGC K-12 recruits to realize their ability to dream while providing them the skills to do so through the power of academics, faith, and service.
AIM has a place for everyone whether you want to teach a basketball workshop, run an art class, or have a one-on-one connection with a recruit.
