Healthy Mind and Body Academy

Hi! I’m George, a high schooler from New York City and the founder of our after-school program. What started as a small school club focused on visible and invisible disabilities grew into an academy where students come together to support a wonderful community—promoting health, inclusion, and connection through fun and safe activities.

I’m grateful to work alongside an incredible group of volunteers, guided by caring teachers and, most importantly, inspired by the amazing children we serve. Together, we’re building healthier minds, stronger bodies, and more compassionate communities—and I couldn’t be prouder to be part of it.
