Mission
Statement:
Suitlandfest CDC is a non-profit
501 (c)(3) corporation, that focuses on developing and implementing programs and activities that promote enhanced levels
of education, recreation, health, fitness, artistic, social and economical development and revitalization.
About Us:
We cater our resources and
services to youth, teens, adults, seniors and at-risk families of Suitland, Maryland and surrounding areas in Prince
George's County.
We are fully aware of the
social and economical ills of today's society and truly believe in the philosophy of each one, reach one and teach
one.
In conjunction with the
Maryland National Capitol Park and Planning Commission, The New Suitland Recreation Council, Wimbush Inc. and the many faithful
supporters and partners within our circle. We are creating a new approaches
to old problems.
Youth of today have evolved
far beyond the intellect of those of the past. They are in need of positive avenues
to cultivate their creative energies. Without these resources, their focus tends
to sway into a life of destruction, leading to drug abuse, crime, and poor family values.
Suitlandfest CDC and it’s network offers a vast selection of resources, that will provide opportunities to the
youth and at-risk families, which will help restore a balance of positive actions and role models within the community.
Seniors are also being outcasted
and becoming prisoners of a community in which most of them are cornerstones. As
pillars of the community these seasoned citizens, have the knowledge and the understanding of the changing world, however
the world seems to overlook them and leave them without a clue to what's actually going on.
There are many services and resources out there that no one bothers to inform the seniors of. Many are in need of medical and financial assistance, but no one offers it to them. We are the voice of the community. We seek out pure issues
of the community and present them as one powerful voice of the people, and assist with locating or implementing solutions.
Our organization is composed of a diverse
group of professional and community leaders, who have come together to make a difference and empower the communities.
