Greenwood Shalom is a program of Greenwood Memorial United Methodist Church. It was founded by the church Outreach Ministries in October 1999. In 2000, we became an affiliate site of The Victory Generation After School Programs (BMATenPoint) to serve a community challenged by the lack of academic advancement for their children. In 2003 Greenwood Shalom was incorporated and obtained their 501c3 non-profit status.
