About Us

Hope Born from Hopelessness

Galaxy  Star Drug Awareness is a grassroots, 501(c)(3) non-profit organization born from the belief that everyone in our society is valuable and worth saving regardless of how far one has fallen.  Galaxy Star has been bringing a message of peace and providing resources for those who are affected by violent crimes and substance abuse in Nashville, Tennessee and surrounding areas since 2001. However, with the many struggles youth today face on July 12, 2007 Galaxy Star launched its Peace Makers Campaign. Let’s End the Violence, Enough is Enough has gained recognition throughout the city of Nashville.

Our Mission: 

To engage our youth and young adults in positive learning experiences that allow them to create non-violent choices, with the hopes of breaking generational, socioeconomic, and environmental barriers to success.

Our Vision:

To implement programs that effectively encourage our youth to choose positive and productive lifestyles. To maintain a personal connection with those at risk for gang involvement, violence, and drug use to show them there is a better way.
