Mission

Saving one life at a time.

 

The CyMo Foundation seeks to improve the lives of youth. We bring awareness through local non-profit alliances, events, and fundraisers. The Foundation promotes and sustains a local initiative of love, health, and happiness. We are building an army to save one person at a time. Our events, partnerships, and educational opportunities educate young people about the harmful effects of abusing drugs. For those who may have a problem abusing alcohol or other drugs, we provide resources and support so that they can get back on track and live life to the fullest.

The CyMo Foundation was created in honor of Cyrus Moinzadeh, born August 7, 1984 in La Jolla, CA. Cyrus will always be remembered for his magnificent benevolence, and altruistic soul. The CyMo Foundation seeks to better our community by mirroring Cyrus’ loving heart and soul.

Your generous donations help educate youth all over San Diego.

About

The CYMO Foundation seeks to improve the lives of youth by bringing awareness through local non-profit alliances. Our aim is to develop an organization which promotes and sustains a local initiative of love, health, and happiness. We are building an army to save one person at a time; our mission is to spread awareness of the rising abuse of prescription drugs.

Your generous donations help educate youth in schools all over San Diego. Our events help spread the word of drug awareness. Although educating people about the harmful effects of drugs is a huge part of our foundation, our ultimate goal is to establish sober homes throughout San Diego County. At no cost to the individual in need.

CYMO is dedicated to helping these individuals and is committed to taking care of their families during their recovery. We work with law enforcement, health and safety organizations as well as with parents whose children have succumbed to prescription drug abuse. We are fighting to stop the ongoing abuse and misuse of these drugs by spreading awareness throughout the community.

With the help of your generous donations CYMO can continue to help young adults in recovery get their life back.

CyMo is comprised 100% of volunteer workers.
