Be Part of Something Bigger

The Wayne O. Johnson Foundation was created to honor the legacy of Brother Wayne O. Johnson, a beloved mentor and educator who dedicated his life to uplifting others. His selfless spirit lives on through our work with youth ages 7 to 17, helping guide the next generation with the same compassion, wisdom, and encouragement he shared so generously.

When you support our mission, you're not just giving to a cause—you’re carrying the mantle forward. You’re fueling dreams, shaping leaders, and reminding our youth that they are seen, supported, and deeply valued.

Be part of something bigger. Donate, volunteer, or share our story—and help us build a brighter future, one child at a time.
