Breaking The Cycle One Link At A Time
 

Welcome to Broken Chain Foundation!

Broken Chain is a Non Profit organization dedicated to enriching the lives of today’s youth through the promotion of Mentors, Community Service, Athletic and Artistic expression.  Broken Chain is committed to helping any child reach his or her full potential.

Obstacles in life are a given, it’s how you respond to those obstacles that can either have a positive or adverse affect on a person's life.

We work with children and give them positive and appropriate ways to remove obstacles. Broken Chain does not support the phrase "I can’t do this" instead we believe the correct saying is "How can I achieve this?" Once that question is asked, that’s when we share our SEVEN KEYS TO SUCCESS. Broken Chain offers programs to help build a child's pride and self confidence. This is essential in order for a child to be able to break the psychological chains that are used as excuses that lead to bad decision making. For example, when a child first enters the program they may state the following excuses; "No one in my family has ever graduated from high school, so why should I?" or "The man is holding me down".  Or a young lady who's mother conceived her at a young age may feel that it's OK if she follows in her mother's footsteps. Broken Chain uses the analogy that equates these excuses, as Chains. We have committed ourselves to showing our young people that obstacles can be overcome regardless of where they grew up, how they lived or what their parents did for a living.  If their dream is to become a Doctor, Attorney or Teacher, Broken Chain gives them the blueprint on how to achieve their goals.
