Startime Enterprises, Inc., as a 501 (c)3 nonprofit organization established in 1997, has provided and will continue to provide mentoring programs for middle and high school youth in the Greater Georgia area. With an emphasis on music and dance appreciation, our program has formed various partnerships, however, we would like to extend our partnership to include local school districts and the juvenile court systems.

Our music programs will include training in de venos areas and our organization will then showcase these talents to the community in our Startime Talent Search. Training will be provided in vocal, piano, strings, woodwind, brass, drums, theory and dance.

Startime Enterprises’s goal is to foster a commitment to young people that will promote pro-social friendships, strong interpersonal skills, and reassert a sense of hope in the future. Only through personal relationships can a sense of individual responsibility be reestablished that will give youth the commitment to follow through on the path to adulthood with a sense of pride and accomplishment.

Through repeated failures in the classroom and the development of destructive habits, at-risk young people have lost faith in the possibilities that await them if they are successful in putting their lives together.
