Mission Statement

AS WE BEGAN WORKING WITH STUDENTS FROM OGDEN, KS IN 2010 WE STARTED TO SEE THAT POVERTY IN OUR COMMUNITY IS LARGELY GENERATIONAL. WE WATCHED STUDENTS WE WORKED WITH, WHO GREW UP IN LOW INCOME HOMES, BECOME ADULTS IN LOW INCOME SITUATIONS, AND EVENTUALLY RAISE THEIR OWN KIDS IN LOW INCOME HOMES. IN 2017 WE OPENED THE HOUSE CAFE INC. TO TRY AND INTERVENE IN THE GENERATIONAL POVERTY CYCLE. THROUGH THE SELLING OF FOOD AND DRINK ITEMS IN A LOCALLY OPERATED COFFEE SHOP. PROFITS, AS WELL AS GRANTS AND DONATIONS ARE USED TO FUND CHILDREN, YOUTH, AND COMMUNITY FOCUSED ENDEAVORS THAT EQUIP AND EMPOWER OGDEN CHILDREN AND YOUTH WITH RESOURCES, ABILITIES, AND EDUCATION TO ESCAPE A GENERATIONAL CYCLE OF POVERTY. THESE ENDEAVORS CONFRONT, WITHOUT LIMITATIONS, CONTRIBUTING FACTORS TO POVERTY SUCH AS DRUG ABUSE, HIGH CRIME RATES, LACK OF RECREATIONAL ACTIVITIES, UNEMPLOYMENT, AND A LACK OF EDUCATION OR EDUCATIONAL RESOURCES, AND OTHER FACTORS WHICH CONTRIBUTE TO THE CONTINUATION OF THE POVERTY CYCLE.
