The Malachi Project, renowned for its after-school discipleship program, has garnered acclaim for its positive influence on the youth in the community.
The Malachi Project offers a holistic program designed to nurture children’s growth through various activities, including Bible study, practical life skills, recreational activities, mentorship, and lessons on essential values like integrity, forgiveness, and respect.
“Supporting initiatives such as the Malachi Project is crucial for our community’s advancement and the youth’s future,” stated Sen.

I commend the General Assembly for acknowledging the significance of this nonprofit organization in the FY 2025 Budget, an investment in our children’s future.”
Currently serving 50 students weekly, the Malachi Project aims to broaden its impact through initiatives like Adopt-A-Student, offering individuals the chance to make a monthly commitment to back the program. Contributions will be directed towards providing meals, transportation, school supplies, and more, ensuring sustained support for the community’s youth.
