About

Our Mission

STREETS Ministries, through the love of Jesus Christ, engages, encourages and equips youth to achieve their potential by realizing their God-given purpose.

Our Impact

Take a look at the difference STREETS made in the lives of hundreds of members we served in 2017 and our plan for strategic growth and development in the years to come.

Our History

In 1987, God called Ken Bennett to a life of service in one of the most desperate neighborhoods in Memphis. With the firm conviction that the only path to true and enduring change was through the hope found in Jesus Christ, Ken began Streets Ministries with only a van, a basketball, and a heart to trust God on a daily basis. Today STREETS operates in two Memphis locations with the help of a wide array of partners. Now, nearly three decades later, STREETS serves nearly 400 students a day providing opportunities and resources to help them find their path to academic, spiritual and physical achievement.
