Children

Evergreen, an after-school tutoring and enrichment program, provides 30 first through sixth graders with a safe, fun, and nurturing environment to do homework, improve academic skills, and participate in recreational activities.

Adventure Zone provides 40 kids with an eight-week summer day camp. This program, ran in collaboration with the City of Sacramento, provides recreation, crafts, and field trips to kids in the summertime.

Teens

Oasis, an evening youth group, offers teens a place of refuge in the middle of their week where they can hang out with friends, play games, learn about God, and be mentored by caring adult volunteers.

Teen Unity, a summer camp for teens, provides youth with field trips and special teen events throughout the summer. Like Adventure Zone, this program is run in collaboration with the City of Sacramento

R4, an after-school program for junior and senior high students, provides youth with a one-on-one volunteer tutor who helps them with homework and mentors them. Students also improve academic skills through computer-based curriculum.

Leaders in Training (L.I.T.) is a new opportunity for youth to become involved in leadership at The GreenHouse. A small team of youth (grades 7-12) is selected to meet monthly to share ideas, plan events, develop their potential, and learn tools for a successful future. Participants have the opportunity to hear guest speakers and go on a special field trip at the end of their term.

Families

Harvest Carnival is an annual event for families in our neighborhood. A pumpkin patch, bounce house, bar-be-que, face painting, games, and crafts make this a fun-filled environment to meet families and invite them to participate in our programs.

Melvin’s Hope Christmas Project provides kids in our neighborhood with a new pair of shoes and a new toy at Christmas time. Sponsors throughout the community buy the gifts and have an opportunity to deliver the gifts in person.
