The mission of EBAYOM is to provide a safe space for children and youth in the community to
congregate for activities that will assist them in their education, social, personal and spiritual
development. The educational and recreational opportunities that we provide are especially
valuable to new immigrant students who need the additional assistance to reach the same level as their
peers in the mainstream educational system. We hope that through these activities, our youth will
acquire the necessary critical thinking, practical and social skills to become leaders in their
respective communities.
