WHAT THEY SAY...
"The BUD Program changed my life. It has put me in a great position career wise. I highly
recommend this program."
"When I started it I was struggling to find any work and I was a homeless single mother. Today I have a career and make good money and am able to provide very well for my family. None of that would have happened without BUD."
This program changed my life for the better. I reach out to young teens to explore this
program because it is an excellent opportunity to better yourself with a career and an overall
experience with people who care about your future well being.
