Promise Center’s goals are providing all children, youth and parents with:
An outgoing relationship with a caring adult
Safe places to learn and grow
Marketable skills through effective education
A healthy start
An opportunity to give back.
In addition, Promise Center seeks to assist our families by offering referrals to other agencies for social, human and medical services, and by providing programs to assist the economically disadvantaged community of predominantly Hispanic origin.
Our Promise for West Baytown, Inc. maintains tax-exempt status and has not operated under another name. Our Community Center is named after our founding member, Fred Aguilar ~ Fred Aguilar Promise Center. Funds we raise allow further program growth and continuation of much needed child, youth and family services in our Baytown Community.
Your contribution or assistance in our fundraising efforts would be immensely appreciated and will provide unprecedented opportunity for the continuous growth of Our Promise for West Baytown, Inc.
