  • Weekend With The Boys

    UCB’s Weekend With The Boys is a mentoring program for elementary, middle and high school children designed to serve 20 male youths between the ages of 4 and 16. WWTB is committed to building and strengthening the character that will produce a healthy lifestyle among young boys. The program, which pairs each boy with a positive male mentor, strives to address negative behavioral issues, strengthen critical thinking skills, increase academic performance and healthy peer relationships, and encourage transformational change in our youth. Character Development Sessions will be hosted to discuss behavior modification, critical thinking, self-esteem, self-awareness and self-expression, and recreational and leisure activities will also be offered.

Mission

The mission of United Community Builders is to build and release capable people. This mission stems from that of the United Community Cathedral, who builds and releases people for the Kingdom’s Work — to meet the needs of the surrounding community. By building the confidence, the gifts and the talents of members to be used in their own community, UCB helps individuals access the power needed to transform their mindsets and behaviors and achieve their own life goals.

UCB accomplishes its mission through six tiers of programming: Focus on Fatherhood; Weekend With The Boys Mentoring Program; Club Kid Connect Youth Academy; Transformation Project; United Community School House; and the Dinner Table.

About

United Community Builders is a 501(c)3 faith-based organization that primarily serves the Boone County and Central Missouri region. Founded 12 years ago, UCB’s mission is to build and release capable people through community-wide programs that focus on education, mentor-ships, job-readiness training and the performing arts.
