The Weed and Seed Program Provides Safety for Youth Ages 6-17 in Oil City
We provide after-school and Summer safe havens, sometimes referred to as "Hot Spots" so youth can have a place to go with many positive role models, enriching academic support activities, and healthy meals.
About Weed and Seed
A team of Keystone SMILES AmeriCorps members offer the children cooked meal, homework help, STEM activities, access to computers, snacks, crafts, free field trips, monthly birthday celebrations, time to just sit as a group and play games and special meals for the holidays. The youth also have an opportunity to be acknowledged for good behavior and earn gift cards through the Venango County Youth Volunteer program. We have outreach programs for the youth on Too Good for Drugs, not smoking and bullying.
