WALL OF COURAGE PROJECT
Secretly, Delece would get phone calls from kids watching the Kidz Korna Tv show to be rescued out of very abusive situations in their homes. Numerous Public performance child abuse awareness campaigns were birthed from the phone calls, Delece and the kids formed the Wall of Courage Project and she began bringing the traveling performance project down to the Daley Center on a yearly basis and to lots of neighborhood festivals as a public outcry to advocate on behalf child
about victims. Much to Delece’s surprise parents would come up and seek out ways of getting help
from abusing their children. And that’s when she partnered with Illinois Prevent Child Abuse
for solutions.
C .U.A.C.A is our Child Abuse Prevention is a fundraising
Networking Event for Kidz Korna, NFP
Kidz Korna's Music Department
Music has been a great tool for community engagement city-wide with help of Farley Jackmaster Funk, the House Music Icon who has Global Recognition in the Music Industry. Farley was recently inducted into the Smithsonian African American Museum where as his contribution inspires our young people during our DC tours. Our outreach projects are more impactful to promote violence prevention initiatives because of his expertise in Music & partnership with other festivities around the city including the Bud Billiken Parade:
.Farley Hosted the EDM ( Electronic Dance Music Museum and Hall of Fame Event) * KKO Produced the House Music Health fair & DJ training at McCormick Convention Center & the Union Station on Lake and Randolph.
*House & Hip Hop Community Unity Weekend, a coming together of
two music genres to help support a safety networking effort for parents
and students provide a smooth transition for students to go to new
schools when their schools closed down.
*Voices Against Violence w/ Americas Young Voices this initiative took
place downtown at the Daley Plaza, giving an opportunity for youth to
use their voices through song to bring awareness to innocent murdered
victims on the streets of Chicago.
Kidz Korna's Exploratory Tours
A special thanks goes out to the Chicago Community Trust for sponsoring our annual trips

Citizens Uniting Against Child Abuse (C.U.A.C.A)
Kidz Korna's Old Youth Organization
(about our old youth site)
Community Connection: Our City-wide initiative was centered in Auburn-Gresham on 79th and Ashland where each corner was considered a different gang turf. With a spike of murders and shootings much of it being gang related and a handful of neighborhoods were especially hard hit in homicides. Through outreach and recruitment, we had lots of Youth & Families in need wanting to be apart of our programs . We’ve out grown our small location and now looking to secure a permanent location close by that will accommodate all of KKO services. Other high crime communities we serve are Roseland and Englewood.
Other Exploratory trips are as follows
Iron Mountain, Michigan
Kingsford, Michigan
Milwaukee, Wisconsin
Atl, Georgia
Orlando, Florida
Niagra Falls, Wisconsin

MOST RECENT KIDZ KORNA PROJECT
Last year, Delece Williams and the Kidz Korna youth where awarded some vacant lots in Englewood from the city of Chicago for the work that they do. She is currently seeking donors to help to bring life back into a desolate community. In May (Memorial Day Weekend), the goal is to build a Playground and Outdoor Family Venue, to incorporate healthy outdoor activities, summer learning programs and workshops for youth and families.
This project is in Honor of the Late Cleveland & Ruby
McDuffy who dedicated their lives to feeding and
housing homeless people in the community for over
30 years. A special thanks goes out to Mr. Bradley.
