"Every community has the right, the resources and the responsibility to raise their children." The Rite Foundation was created out of a desire to make our world a better place. Each program is designed to be an integral part of a whole life approach that will link formal education and much needed “life education" together with community service. Many years ago, life education was taught by older relatives or elders in our neighborhoods. Our world has changed and our children are commonly not now receiving this education. The Rite Foundation helps to prepare children as they journey through each stage of life by imparting knowledge, teaching essential skills, and setting expectations for the future. As the child progresses along the path to becoming a responsible, contributing member of society, each stage is acknowledged and celebrated. Programs are age appropriate and taught by members of The Rite Foundation's “Community".
