About Us
P.Y.G. is a non-profit organization that was formed to fight hunger and promote healthy eating habits, among children and teens, by increasing our focus on nutrition. Our program is committed to preparing students with basic life skills, financial literacy, and academic achievement.
Our approach is to create a preparatory program that will focus on essential life skills through their early childhood, adolescents, and adulthood. Our daily meal program will be the focal point. WE understand that there is a physical hunger and an educational appetite that must be filled. P.Y.G. will monitor the progress and success of each student through hands-on coaching and training.
