Our Core Values include a focus on intentional community, connectional ministry, discernment of purpose, empowerment of young people, servant leadership, and holistic development. Our core values are lived out through mutual relationships with those we serve and our Wesleyan Practice of faith.

SERVICES - HOW WE DO IT

Summer Enrichment and Leadership Program (Davidson County, Rutherford County, Montgomery County, and Shelby County) Project Transformation's eight-week summer program operates Monday through Thursday from 9 am to 3 pm at two sites in Davidson County, two sites in Rutherford County, one in Montgomery County, and one in Shelby County. Highlights for children (grades 1-6) include a daily reading program, nutritious meals, and enriching art and wellness activities. Our youth program (grades 6-8) focus on team-building and leadership development, book clubs, and service projects. Project Transformation also recognizes the importance of educating tomorrow's leaders to be principled and community-oriented. Summer internship experiences are offered for young adults who are interested in hands-on service to the community. During their term of service, interns participate in on-going training and regular meetings with community and civic leaders to examine different careers in community service. The interns, in turn, are the key providing health, academic, and recreational enrichment for underserved children.
