Based in Wilmington, the organization operates with a focus on direct and indirect services such as Big Buddy, LifeGuide, National Days of Service, Kids Voting, and Kids Care Clubs. Its activities aim to recruit and train volunteers, provide case management and ongoing support, and facilitate group activities to reinforce positive community impact.
