T-Chalé Prejean Life Foundation

A FOUNDATION BASED ON FAMILY

Our organization is dedicated to our family member T-Chalé, who was taken from us as a victim of a violent crime in 2016. However, he is not the only one.

According to the CDC (2020), homicide is the 2nd leading cause of death for young people ages 15-19. Per the Population Reference Bureau (2022), homicide is one of the top three causes of death in youth under 25. Unless time and effort are taken to combat this problem in our society, it will not go away. We hope you will find a way to join us on our journey, whether it’s through volunteering, contributing, or attending one of our events.

GIVING POSITIVE GUIDANCE TO YOUTH IN NEED

In order to change and positively impact this current epidemic in many African American and other communities, we provide mentoring as well as educational, financial, and other support assistance to adolescence and young adults. Through the support of our foundation, we aim to achieve a positive effect on both the personal and professional lives of youth in need.
