At Greater Life of Fayetteville we believe in and lead educational programs that inspire challenged youth through Art.

Here you will find programs that not only benefit the child, but also encourages and supports the parents. The Core Values of the organization and programs are:

Family, Integrity, Trust, Confidence, Respect and Generosity. 

Our Programs

  • This is a free program offered to families who are seeking an option to bring their child in grades 3 - 8 to a safe and nurturing environment during their time on out-of-school short-term suspension. Mentoring is a major artery of the program. Youth mentoring works best when goals focus on developing trusting relationships with peers and adults. Parental involvement is vital and beneficial.

  • Raising a child takes a village and Greater Life of Fayetteville is here to be a part of that village. Along with programs for the children, GLOF also provides programs and resources for parents.

    Our parent programs are designed to help parents navigate educational, community, and family dynamics. Parents can also receive basic financial information/classes.

    Parent Workshop Form

  • The After School Program is offered to youth seeking assistance with homework or assignments. Due to funding requirements, parents must submit the last 3 months of their pay stubs and the students last 3 report cards.

  • Mentoring is a way to tap into one's development and help promote growth. The Mentoring Program at Greater Life of Fayetteville is a front line of reducing truancy, out of school dropouts, and parental workshops designed to assist with intervention and preventive tools to help in their child's development.

  • I Am YOU-Nique Summer Academy offers a variety of activities and classes geared towards STEM. Each week youth will be impacted with sessions in Art, Agriculture, Technology, Banking, and Leadership.

  • Roots & Resilience is an exclusive program for Greater Life of Fayetteville students, designed to foster emotional regulation, leadership, and social skills through hands-on garden activities. Guided by certified therapeutic horticulturalist NaTasha Lax of Carolina Foodscapes, students engage in nurturing, team-based gardening experiences that build confidence, self-awareness, and resilience. By connecting with nature and each other, participants grow life skills, strengthen relationships, and gain tools for personal well-being—all in a supportive, green environment.
