It takes great people with great vision to do what we do! We certainly can't do it alone...
Meet some of the special people and organizatins that assist us yearly in providing one of the most comprehensive summer camp opportunities in the City of Atlanta.
Bricks 4 Kidz Atlanta
Bricks 4 Kidz® camps are a fresh and fun way for kids to spend their school or holiday break! Children will enjoy using LEGO® Bricks to build specially-designed models, play games, explore the world of engineering, architecture and movie-making. Bricks has been one of Mental Fitness' most valued partners since our beginnings in 2014. Their use of Legos to expose students to all the elements of S.T.E.A.M. provide our students with a world class opportunity each time out. Bricks provides workshops with Mental Fitness in our after-school programs, in-school field trips and courses and of course summer camps.

Your Faith Farms - STEM on the farm
In 2016 Patrick Muhammad participated in a nationally televised show called Home Free. There he competed impressively to provide a home for one of his best friends. That summer he offered his services to Mental Fitness as our STEM on the Farm professional at his family farm in Fairburn (Your Faith Farms).
Since then Patrick and his family have provide the children of Mental Fitness with his expertise in farm to table eating, gardening, the science involved in farming and his presence as a role model for children. His unique experience as a former Atlanta Publis School principal gives him just the right perspective to be able to educate and farm at the same time. This year he and his family will collaborate with Open Hand Atlanta to provide the fruits, vegetables and other ingredients for our middle/high school cooking class. We're always excited to work with Your Faith Farms.
