Nonprofit Partnerships
Since the Pandemic occurred in March 2020 the Sean O’Shea Foundation has transitioned to online training and free video access* for our partners, students and professionals at schools, juvenile centers, and children’s hospitals as well as the general public.
Due to the generalized shutdown and in keeping with public health measures, we suspended all in-person programming last spring and therefore have accumulated a surplus of funding that now allows the Sean O’Shea Foundation to reach out to other nonprofits via partnerships and funding support.
This February we will be supporting several nonprofits whose programs and services target a similar demographic and, in keeping with our mission, empower youth through mindful practices, nutritional education and optimistic teachings that help to develop life skills that can: enable youth to take responsibility for their life, develop respect for themselves and others, and have confidence in their own potential.
