The founders sought to help young men in the community to have purpose and that still stands to this day.

WHAT WE DO
Looking Forward
The staff of Genesis Express Incorporated are working to expand the facility to something that better suits the growing community that we look to serve. We are creating a new intergenerational center that will be located at 205 Jefferson Street. The intergenerational center will be designed for the use of various groups of all ages. The facility will provide programs that are safe, supervised, healthy and age-appropriate activities for all. The programs offered will form partnerships with different organizations and groups throughout the community. These programs will foster a commitment to the youth, seniors and the disadvantaged and underprivileged that will promote; provide social friendship, intergenerational skills, and social unity for the future. Only through a united effort can a sense of responsibility be established that will develop a sense of pride among all citizens.
