“If you give a man a fish, you feed him for a day. If you teach a man how to fish, you feed him for a lifetime.” -Lao Tzu 



Youth Effect started in Worcester, MA in 1999 with just a few Asian youths with a mission to keep youth in schools, off the streets, and away from gangs. Since then, the SEAC youth program has continually provided services such as academic tutoring, physical fitness activities and college preparation. In the last few years, SEAC youth's have had a 100% High School graduation rate and more than 90% pursue higher education. Youth Effect has helped the Southeast Asian Coalition achieve many awards and received recognition throughout New England and across the United States.



Youth Effect International allows SEAC's youth to expand their philanthropic endeavors beyond Worcester, MA. Our mission is to encourage and provide school supplies to support impoverished demographics, such as at-risk children, in struggling communities. By giving these children the tools they need to go to school, we would like to build up, support, and advocate for the youth so they can achieve success and have a brighter future that does not involve hustling, crime, trafficking, or other illegal activities. We believe education will help the younger generation to overcome poverty.
