Programs | Helping Hands

BMoved's Mentorship Program focuses on personal responsibility, goal setting, failure handling, financial literacy, and the importance of education, nutrition and physical fitness. The participating youth are introduced to positive role models who are leaders in business, the military, their families and communities.

Boys Program

The gym forms an important foundation for our mentorship and guidance program for boys, but the habits they develop translate into everyday life. As a result, the children participating in our program begin to taste small successes. They explore mental reward systems based on small, incremental victories and they learn that while there are no easy answers, the effort they put forth matters.

It’s a funny organ, the brain. When it gets too comfortable, ambition plummets and rewards don’t mean much anymore. There are entire teams of people at video game and social media companies whose job it is to leverage this reward system and rob us of our time - only to sell it to the highest bidder, and we get very little back. But… through physical action and discomfort our boys reclaim their brain’s reward system and put it to work in a way where they unlock their future success with it.

In our program, the boys learn to speak up and ask questions, they gain a brotherhood that crosses socioeconomic boundaries and develop well-earned self-respect. These lessons help them be their best in a wide variety of situations, and brings their discipline out of the gym and into their lives and everyday interactions.

Girls Program

Coming soon! We have recently brought on a new director and we expect to launch in early 2024.

At BMoved, we strive to inspire a love of learning in students of all backgrounds and abilities. Within the first 30 days of joining our program, all students meet with the director of our Education Program to identify the areas in which they need support. We curate a personalized approach to help them value and excel in school. All of our tutors have extensive teaching experience, a bachelor’s degree from a recognized college or university, and many have higher degrees or teaching credentials.

Online Tutoring

There is no substitute for education. Fair or not, a person's formal education will dictate how they are perceived, what roles they will be offered in the workforce, and shows an ability to take commitments seriously. Tutoring gives children of all ages and socioeconomic backgrounds an advantage over their peers that will pay dividends long into the future. At BMoved we offer formal online tutoring in foundational elements like reading, writing and communication, as well as more advanced topics like science, technology, engineering and mathematics.

Scholarship Navigation

Many of our students receive partial or full scholarships for college and we help them avoid the pitfalls of predatory lending by helping them find, qualify for, and receive grants & scholarships. In select scenarios, BMoved will provide direct supplemental funding. However, as many of our students are the first in their family to attend college, they may face unique and new challenges their families may not be prepared to assist with. BMoved is here to help.

Unfortunately, imposter syndrome is very real for many first generation college students. Many feel unwelcome or ill equipped for school, facing psychological, academic, financial, and social challenges. Understanding that about one in three first-generation students leave college within the first three years, our students remain enrolled with BMoved throughout college or trade school. Even after graduation, the brotherhood never ends and a lot of this assistance comes from their peers within the program.

We are here to remind them they are not "imposters", that they should celebrate this opportunity rather than feel shame, and provide financial and emotional support.

School Fees

At BMoved we cover expenses not covered by public and private schools for kids starting at age 8. These include college application fees, activity fees, sports fees, equipment, technology and other activities.

Boxing and HIIT Gym Program

Studies have shown that organized, well-structured youth sports and ongoing physical activities provide a multitude of benefits for children of all ages. Positive experiences in sports and an active lifestyle overall play an important role in developing a healthy outlook on life, self confidence, personal accountability, team building and how to handle failure. The BMoved youth have opportunities to take part in boxing and HIIT classes hosted by Beastie Boxing Gym.

Physical Training

Positive experiences that sports and an active lifestyle bring play an important role in a young person’s life, therefore group classes are not the only physical activity programs offered through BMoved. For those intimidated by a group setting and/or would benefit from one-on-one instruction and accountability from a mentor, BMoved youth can be enrolled in physical training tailored to their personal needs. This personalized program is formulated by the mentors and professional trainers of Beastie Boxing Gym.

Our goal is to help our students have a better relationship with money through education and support. We have partnered with Kinecta Empowerment Center to help plant the seeds for financial growth, knowledge and success.

With an increasingly competitive job market, we help our students explore career pathways and graduate programs related to their interests and degrees. We offer webinars that feature panelists who provide practical career navigation tips. Our students have a chance to engage with professionals in their fields of interest and ask them questions to help inform their future career decisions.

BMoved is proud to partner with people and organizations who meet the needs of the underserved, providing food, clothing, and shelter.
