These young people living on the streets huddle together at "bases" trying to survive, with no idea that anyone cares about them and unaware they contain the power to make a difference in the lives of those around them. This tragic position shifts dramatically when these young people encounter love. From the beginning, FIKISHA’s desire has been to care for, love, and see change in those the world has seemingly cast aside- to bring hope to the broken situations in our community. Our time is spent mentoring “street kids,“ as well as working with business owners, local leaders, families, and schools. We continually listen and learn and have heard the needs, challenges, and dreams of the community. With this intimate knowledge, we are able to respond in love to every heart in our care. We know that with the right mix of love, community, investment, and opportunity young people can flourish and become great assets to their neighborhoods and future families. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60f3a47f72db40740f7db871/1626587185851-QVJCMZZ7L6RW4POJEJSG/Fikisha+scholars.jpeg Home - WALKING THE WALK We utilize the following strategic initiatives to accomplish this work: 1- Community walkthroughs and home visits 2- Mentoring and small groups 3- Changemakers (scholarships and tutoring) 4- Recovery and family reunification 5- Velocity (after-school programs) 6- Church Youth Group https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60f3a47f72db40740f7db871/ef1e344f-ca73-4d03-bf78-031194a0e0ef/Kids.jpg Home - BOY WITH A BALL In 2014 Fikisha became a member organization of Boy With A Ball (BWAB). BWAB shared the same vision of transforming communities by empowering young people. Together Fikisha and BWAB exists to restore cities by reaching young people and equipping them as leaders. These leaders are capable of turning and transforming their communities to see change in cities around the world. “Great leaders dream dreams, understand & articulate the dreams of others & find ways of turning a dream into reality.” - Jamie Johnson, BWAB Executive Director https://www.fikisha.org/donate daily 0.75 2024-08-07 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60f3a47f72db40740f7db871/1626670541838-ZC71FRAKP3BT8V3QG3PT/barrack+and+kids.jpeg Donate https://www.fikisha.org/team daily 0.75 2025-03-05 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60f3a47f72db40740f7db871/1630447552614-8OKDI1JYV0E41KYKYKCO/Moses+pic.jpeg Team - Moses Aboka Tobias Keene, D.D.S. Hailing from Richmond, Virginia, Dr. Tobias Keene brings a bit of unabashed Southern hospitality to all his patients. He moved to Washington, D.C. over thirty years ago as a freshman at Ivy College. Right after graduation, he attended World University’s School of Dentistry. Before opening Keene Dental in 1994, he worked for free clinics and some of the finest practices in the District. He is part of the 123 Dental Association and stays up-to-date on the latest dental discoveries. When not striving to keep his patients happy and healthy, he’s enjoys hiking with his family in Rock Creek Park. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60f3a47f72db40740f7db871/1630447665540-08WDK0GKXYMW4NZRFSAD/Frank%2BOgot.jpg Team - Frank Ogot Operations Director Frances is known for many valuable characteristics: his integrity, his passion for others, his desire to help-but most notably his laugh. Frances’ laugh is not just contagious, its joyful. Frances is able to connect with some of the most closed-off people with his gentle smile, kind demeanor and joyful laugh. As executive director, Frances does a little bit of everything while still finding a balance of what areas to focus on for future growth. Frances works with the scholars, leads community walk-throughs, spends on-on-one time with scholars and engages the USA team for the best support moving forward. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60f3a47f72db40740f7db871/1630447761397-ZQPZGN7RXN0T156DCSYW/IMG_0728.jpg Team - Sam Bretzmann Tobias Keene, D.D.S.
