The Seacrest Studio inside Le Bonheur Children’s Hospital will allow children to explore a new world of radio, television and new media – and expose them to a whole new realm of possibilities and potential careers. |

Streets Ministries' vision is to ignite a flame of hope in every child, every day. Through after-school mentoring, outreach, recreation and educational programming we engage, encourage, and equip youth to achieve their potential by realizing their God-given purpose. |
