Our Story

Why were we founded?

The R.E.A.C.H. Foundation, Inc. was founded in 2014 by Cierra Carter and close friend, Chaz Robinson. Their personal stories motivated them to be advocates for young children, low income families, minorities and disadvantaged individuals. They wanted to assist in rebuilding and empowering avenues that create hope.

R.E.A.C.H. provides various programs aimed to build self-esteem and confidence for the next generation of leaders.  


Our Events

·       We host a fun party and provide over 300 gifts to kids during the holidays in order to spread positivity and good spirits. 

·       Children from ages 7-15 in the community learn about sportsmanship, collaboration, teamwork, leadership, and so much more.  It also serves as an event in which kids can have a ton of fun in a safe space.

·       We distribute backpacks filled with various school supplies at the start of the school year for over 100 students.
