SERVING COUNTRY AND COMMUNITY

KEEP MY

HOOD GOOD

HONORING JUANITA JONES

Juanita Jones may have begrudgingly entered military service, choosing the United
States Marine Corps, the ‘best branch of service,’ says Jones.
However, Jones marched out of her honorable service with the principles of
accountability, excellence, integrity, and respect.

Serving her country provided her with a deep sense of herself, encouraged her to adopt
a liberating direction for her life, and the drive and compassion to help
others. Juanita turned these attributes into an empowering mission statement for
Keep My Hood Good, (KMHG)

KMHG promotes personal, civic, and community responsibility for underserved,
underprivileged youth through structured activities that encourage
breaking generational poverty. Since 2009, KMHG has been
serving Jackson area youth, successfully engaging them in art, sports,
education, and awareness projects.

Please join ZGP Magazine in honoring Juanita’s brave service to our country,
courageous compassion for her community, and her noble efforts to ensure that all our
vulnerable yet valuable youth are empowered for their futures.

Since 2009, KMHG has worked with over 200 children.
Each participant is provided three options upon high school graduation:
(1) College/Trade School, (2) Military Service, or (3) Self Sufficient Occupation

Coming soon is a video of Success Stories.

Please follow KMHG for updates and ways you can help this organization continues its mission.
