Hope For The Lost
November 06, 2020
Four words: Hope for the Lost. That is the mission of the ASW Foundation, Inc. in a nutshell. In everything Aaliyah and her team do is to strive to show the youth in our communities that they have potential. Over the last five years, her organization has grown into a movement to stop the senseless gun violence in our communities. In 2019, Aaliyah Stewart, began developing a plan to build a youth center in her hometown of Gary, Indiana. This community center will be a safe haven for the youth of the city-a place where they can come together for recreation and to receive guidance and direction. When the center opens, it will be something unlike anything anyone has seen in the City of Gary in quite some time.
