The Man-E Moreno Foundation

The Man-e Moreno Foundation, DBA Victims Of Violent Crimes is a non profit organization dedicated to assisting and meeting the emotional, spiritual, and relational needs of the families and friends of those that have been taken by an act of violence. The 212 CENTER is our vehicle to address the needs of our youth.

Our purpose is to  unite a people and through the strength of God, become victorious over the grief and sorrow. We believe each and every one of us can conquer the hardships and pain of loosing a loved one to this epidemic called violent crimes.

Through the partnership with churches, schools, communities, and other purpose driven organizations, we will gain fulfillment by accomplishing our goals. Goals such as a commitment to reaching out to the community and strategizing for a solution of change for the youth of today by providing and also supporting intervention programs, training and support groups, also nourishing hearts through laughter, lifting souls through friendship and cultivating relationships with all walks of life. 

We believe our actions may change someone's life and persuade an alternate way of living through a time of crisis. Though our loss of our loved ones may have caused tears of sadness, our desire is to see those same tears become tears of joy. With all our efforts our losses will not be in vain, but rather our loss will become their gain.
