As the Founder and Director of DJ Sports Club, I am honoured to lead this highly
effective organization through such an important time. We are committed to
increase the number of youth members and programs over the next three years.
This is an ambitious task. However, We are well-positioned to take on this task. We have a
wealth of resources provided by the the Little Burgundy Sports Center, Arrondissement du Sud-Quest
and the RSBL Club. The years of leadership that Jean Moise Louis-Charles and Maria Brown has
built and strengthened the organization to what it is today. Last, but not to say the least,
the passion of the talented staff and our dedicated volunteers is what fuels the momentum
of serving the youth at DJ Sports Club.
Ten years ago was when I first envisioned the creation of DJ Sports Club.
Growing up in the inner-city, I knew first-hand the effects of growing up around substance
abuse and gang activities. This was what inspired me to help induce change. I knew the
important of having a productive place as an alternative to the streets. DJ Sports Club is
that productive place where hundreds of youth are learning life skills to become effective
citizens and leaders. The alarming trend of violence invovling young people is a grave sign
that there remains to be a lot of work to be done.
Working closely with our great group of volunteers, staff and program partners, and with
support from generous donors who care about our city’s kids, we will materialize our vision
to double the number of youth members and programs in the next three years.
