Mission & Impact Statements Mission Franktown is a nonprofit ministry in Franklin, Tennessee that enhances the lives of underprivileged youth. Through hands on programming, we teach marketable life skills, typically learned in the household, to inspire confident, empowered young adults to lead fulfilled lives. The mission is "to inspire, empower, and equip at-risk youth in Franklin, TN." Background The word "Franktown" is the street vernacular for Franklin, TN, one of the wealthiest communities in the nation. Just blocks away from a revitalized downtown, million-dollar historic homes and brand-new condominiums however, are neighborhoods of low-income housing, surprising poverty and hundreds of at-risk youth. Here are the facts: The neighborhood elementary school reports a 69% poverty rate; average annual income for our families is approximately $12,500; 100% of our families are on the free/reduced lunch program; 80% of our children live in single-parent homes; only 17% of the parents have graduated high school. Growing up in generational poverty depresses hope and gives little promise of an optimistic future. After growing up poor in Williamson County himself, local plumber and volunteer football coach Wayne Howell was frustrated to see so many athletes from poor neighborhoods used for their athletic ability and then ignored after high school. They had no prospects for college and no marketable job skills. They were dying- not so much physically, but mentally and spiritually. He got together with a few friends and invited several youth to come for meals and just hang out. Due to Wayne s tireless work, the organization wrote a strategic plan, elected a Board of Directors and completed the requirements to be recognized as a 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation. Franktown Open Hearts started with about 12 kids, all boys. Few, if any, of the original participants had plans to attend college. Today, more than 100 young men and women (grades 1-12) are involved in the program which provides tutoring, mentoring, vocational training, recreation and a nutritious meal six days a week. More than a dozen churches and hundreds of individuals in the Franklin area are actively involved in working together to build a positive future for these young people. Of the current high school participants in the program, more than 95% plan to either attend a four-year college, or receive accredited vocational training. The program will assist them determine their vocational aptitudes, and in identifying possible career paths. In a time when many volunteers who are not familiar with the struggles of poverty tend to pity those they are trying to help, Wayne Howell and others maintain high expectations for respect, behavior and academic progress. They love these boys and the boys, in turn, love and respect the volunteers. Franktown Open Hearts is making a historic difference in our community. 2

Impact 2017-2018 Accomplishments: 1. Our invaluable volunteers left their hand-prints on every portion of our programming as they generously donated over 4,500 hours of tutoring, cooking, mentoring, and life skills training. 2. Our children not only received your gifts of love and kindness, but also understood their duty to give back as they donated more than 350 hours of community service clearing assisting the elderly in area nursing homes, partnering with other nonprofits like My Friends House, YCap, Graceworks, Grace Healthcare, and numerous churches in Williamson County. 3. Approximately 178 children were instructed in various life skills programs like leadership development, public speaking, hunter safety training, woodworking, art and music, Automotive repair, sewing, and cooking classes. Franktown was able to hire a Director of Program Operations and two program assistants to expand programming to reach new communities in the area. 4. Our automotive program took in over three dozen donated cars. Our participating teens (under the supervision of adult mechanics) made repairs to the cars, and then re-gifted them to families that did not have transportation. 5. We worked towards setting up a STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) room and program for our youth. This program will launch in the fall of 2018. Goals for 2018-2019: 1. Offer practical programs specifically for high school age students to increase program retention. 2. Expand the funding base to include additional monthly contributors. 3. Acquire a dedicated facility to meet the current and future needs of the organization. Needs DEDICATED FACILITY($1M+) Having our own facility would allow our directors and volunteers to spend more time running programs and seeking new funding instead of coordinating and scheduling transportation, facility usage, activities and meals for up to 70 kids at a time, 6 days a week, all over Williamson County. VOLUNTEERS ($0) - People who can spend time with our young men and women, sharing their skills, interests and abilities. We offer 11 ongoing programs throughout the year, and we need additional volunteers willing to pour into our kids. Other ways to donate, support, or volunteer One may send a check to P.O. Box 611, Franklin, TN 37065. Please contact 615.807.0782 or send a message through our website: www.franktownopenhearts.com to make in-kind donations or to inquire about current volunteer opportunities.

Board Chair Statement As the mission statement indicates, the volunteers of Franktown are bringing spiritual and physical hope to the boys and girls of Franktown by being Jesus in their lives. Over the last twelve years, hundreds of individuals have touched the lives of Williamson County s inner-city youth, and their future is now brighter as a result. Franktown s volunteers have given thousands of hours in feeding (both physically and spiritually), teaching, tutoring, mentoring, and transporting all in an effort to provide hope for a better future. And not just for the children's lives, but for the lives they will touch. A number of the young men and women have accepted Christ, and are now living productive lives. Their light is now spreading into entire neighborhoods that were once very dark. Because of Franktown, some of our inner-city youth are turning in higher test scores and gaining acceptance to colleges that, until now, were not an option. Others are learning about vocational opportunities, and selecting career paths accordingly. In addition to all of our other programming, volunteers are assisting with applications for financial aid and scholarship money to help as many as possible receive a college degree or vocational certification. The Challenge Before Us In addition to being Jesus in their lives, Franktown s mission statement concludes by committing to teaching its participants critical life skills. These life skills may include carpentry, plumbing, automotive repair, landscaping, sewing, computer skills and cooking, to name but a few. To successfully implement this portion of the mission, Franktown is seeking two things first, its own facility that will accommodate areas dedicated to teaching these life skills; and secondly, partnerships with various local businesses that will assist in teaching the young men through internships and temporary employment. As with any young non-profit, Franktown s challenge is two-fold. First and foremost, the ministry must continue to attract volunteers. Secondly, there are financial needs. However, money cannot be Jesus in someone s life but a caring heart can be. While the financial gifts are vital in providing hot meals, transportation, and a paid staff to run the programs, just being present in a child s life cannot be bought. These challenges are being addressed through prayer, word of mouth, meeting with area churches and civic groups, fundraising campaigns, and grant applications. Thankfully, prayers are being answered daily, and the word is spreading. So the biggest challenge for me is finding time to interact with the Franktown students. But I have come to terms with my role for now God is allowing me to use the organizational and leadership talents that he blessed me with to help move this ministry forward. My passion for being involved springs from an intense desire to help those who are suffering--moreover, to help children who are suffering through no fault of their own. Most of the residents of Williamson County are surprised to learn that there is poverty here. We are, after all, one of the wealthiest counties in the United States of America. We pride ourselves on our nice homes, our luxury automobiles, and our designer label clothing. But less than a mile from historical downtown Franklin, there are hundreds of children without a father who need guys like me to show them the way. The King will reply, I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me. Matthew 25:40. 4

CEO Statement Franktown Open Hearts is a Franklin faith-based non-profit organization that has the goal of providing hope for the at-risk youth living in the low-income neighborhoods of Williamson County. We want to make it possible for the dreams of a higher education, successful family, home ownership and worthwhile careers to come true for young men and women caught in the grasp of generational poverty. In the last year alone we have worked with 100 young men and women, and that number is growing. Our program works with young men and women, Grades 1-12, through academic support, vocational training, exposure to culture and the arts, mentoring, recreation and spiritual leadership. We are offering classes in marketable skills such as the building trades, the arts, technical skills, culinary skills and others to provide these young men a ladder to climb out of their current life situation. Our college-bound participants are helped to find scholarships and other support to make a college education a reality. Meals are provided six times a week as well as transportation to all events. The help of the community is vital to the ongoing success of this life-changing organization. Whether the support comes in the form of volunteerism, gifts-in-kind, donated cars, or through donations and grants, each contribution allows us to help one more young man and woman achieve their goals. Can you assist to make those goals become a reality today? 5

As an organization that depends on the contributions of individual donors, our greatest challenge is making as many people as possible aware of the great need and opportunity we have in our community. As more people become aware, more individuals and grantors are willing to provide financial support to make a difference in the lives of at-risk youth in our community.
