“Together we can change the world –
One teen at a time.”

Margo Majdi, Founder

The Torch Foundation Master Trainer Mary Jo Lorei released her first book on transformational leadership, “Practical Inspirations: Where the bumper sticker meets the road.”

Mary Jo is an incredible leader, coach, and trainer. We are very proud that she provides leadership to our staff and conducts the Torch Foundation Training. It is an excellent opportunity for others to experience her through the book available on Amazon.

The Results Speak

IMPROVED FAMILY RELATIONSHIPS

Looking to improve relationships between your family members? Emotional intelligence (EQ) is the most effective and proven tool we teach to improve family relationships.

INCREASED SELF WORTH

Self worth comes from within, students won't find it by having more friends or better grades. Our training has been proven to increase students feeling of self worth.

VALUING EDUCATION

The aim is for our students not only to understand the value, but also to reflect it in their attitudes and behaviour, and contribute to society through good citizenship, attendance and ethics.

IMPROVED GRADES

Bad grades? Your child can still end up where you want them to be if you take action now. 4 out of 5 students see an improvement on their report cards in the first 30 days.

IMPROVED INTEGRITY

Our main goal is to empower teens in owning their voices and taking responsibility. The Torch Foundation's motto is, "If it's to be, it's up to me" and it can also be your Childs too.

What Teens Are Saying

This Torch training was amazing. I got to let out my emotional experiences in a positive way rather than turning to liquor or drugs. I discovered a better and improved me who is great.

This was the best thing I could have ever done on a weekend. In the Torch training I learned to honor my word as myself. I will take that lesson with me forever and make the world a better place beginning with me.

Anthony

Torch was great! It was one of the greatest two days of my life. It’s a place where you can let go of everything, all your sadness and anger. This place has made me a free man.
