The key mission is to have the youth program. The youth program that will help in making sure that children at the reading level were able to be helped to pursue their wish of becoming good readers at their early age. With the help of different organizations, I think they will be of great benefit to the performance of the youth program.

The above-named community organizations will be helpful since they will ultimately help in providing tutor to teach children at the reading level plus offering other volunteering services. Furthermore, they will act as the roadmap that can be used by this community organization wish to be started. With the help of personnel who have great experience in operating volunteering programs, then it will be easy for this organization to operate efficiently and effectively. Well-knowledge persons are vital to collaborate with in this youth program because it will help in outlining the weaknesses that every youth program is facing and thus advice on how to work against those weaknesses.

In different community organizations, it has been different resources that have been used to facilitate the mission of every organization. The mostly and obvious resources that are required by every community is the labor. In short, there must be some volunteers who are willing to undertake responsibilities of any community organization. Furthermore, before any organization involves itself in delivering different community services, it assesses various factors such as its strategic position, the demographics, the cost of starting the community organization, the labor availability, etc. Furthermore, the society has also been another resource required by a different community organization to ensure it has operated very well since every organization must be community friendly.

Different organizations will play a unique role in the mission. Firstly, the Juniors Achievement of Coastal South Carolina might donate its tutors to help in helping the children at their reading level. Second, the Literacy Center may also provide the infrastructure and learning center where the children can be taught at. Thirdly, the Help of Beaufort is a community organization that will be of great help to the mission since not all parents can make it bring their children for teaching because of unable to meet the basic needs. Thus it will help in meeting the basic needs of those families that are needed by children. Furthermore, if collaborate with the low country legal volunteers will help in volunteering the providing the education and legal services via community volunteer. The fifth organization, the Alzheimer’s family services to offer the long-term and immediate support, and education to the low-income families. In addition, the Neighborhood Outreach Connection will help in creating a connection between different communities so that people can be interconnected to support the mission. Moreover, the thumb Inc. is a community organization that helps the student to achieve the grade level proficiency, thus, in collaboration with the mission group, it will help in offering educational services to the children. In addition, the Beaufort County School District Adult Education Program will also in giving guidelines how children should be taught and volunteering in delivering education services. That is, tutors from this organization will be volunteering their effort to teach children.

The collaboration of my community organization will affect the stability since if different community organization work together for the same mission or objectives, then there will be a conflict of interests (Anderson-Butcher, et al., 2008). This will happen because the different organization will be competing to outdo each other in delivering services.
