Tell Us About Yourself: Walter
Sims CEO and Founder of Sims Strategic Mentoring Program. I founded the program
out of a desired compassion to empower unfortunate youth. It formed from me and
a few other adults getting a group of young kids to question neighbors on how
they can improve the community. Youth were evaluated on their approach and
behavior in the matter, and then rewarded for their participation and effort.
The program then took the initiative to implement such improvements. We served
the community in feeding the homeless and doing Christmas dinners and gift
giveaways.
What are your favorite’s quotes?
I owe God everything;
Mindset is everything, Empowering minds to embrace kindness
Can you tell us a little bit about your business or the work you do?
Youth and their
family members are referred to Sims Strategic Mentoring, upon enrolling, an
evaluation will occur to better understand referrals needs in developing
properly. Then thorough background checked and trained mentors are assigned to
assist referrals needs. The program also works with other non-profit
organizations through inspirational speaking, community involvement and social
development.
