history
Grow Unwind Connect (GUC) was established with the mission to integrate wellness practices into daily routines, particularly within educational and athletic sectors in Compton. Founded with a vision to transform communities through holistic wellness, storytelling, sports and education, officially began its journey as a grassroots initiative for “Growing Up Compton” in 2023. Since then, it has pivoted into its own global movement dedicated to enhancing mental, physical, and emotional well-being.
