The Challenge
Today’s world presents unique pressures for young people of all genders, races, and ethnic backgrounds as they grow into adulthood. Between academic expectations, social influences, and limited access to consistent guidance, many navigate these important years without structured support. Even the most dedicated parents and caregivers benefit from a supportive community. With mentorship that respects their identities and experiences, young people gain the tools and encouragement they need to thrive with confidence and direction.

COO and CoFounder
Daisy Maliko
Daisy Maliko, co-founder of the MASTERS Mentorship Program, a 501(c)3 organization, serving the Moreno Valley community. Born in the Ivory Coast to a Nigerian mother and a father from the Republic of Benin, Daisy grew up shaped by the richness of multiple cultures with the values of perseverance, faith, and an unwavering belief in a better future. As a proud mother of 14-year-old twin boys she instills from her parents the understanding that hope is not passive, and that Jesus Christ is the anchor through every season of life.
When Ms. Maliko relocated to California she pursued higher education by attending Santa Monica College. She then went on California State University, Northridge to complete her education. Daisy has been in the public health profession for over 16 years. Her diverse roots gives her both the perspective and drive.
With her extensive background in public health and fueled by her passion as a mother, she wanted to find a local program that would nurture life skills, emotional intelligence, and cultural identity for her boys. At first she discovered the BRAAF (Building Resilience in African American Families) program based out of the Riverside County Health System. Unfortunately, BRAAF lost its funding in 2024. Linking with a fellow parent and future partner, together they refused to accept the void BRAFF left in the community, so they built what they could not find. MASTERS, (Mindset, Aspiring, Successful, Trailblazer, Elevate, Responsible, Solidarity), is a program offering youth culturally competent mentorship and academic accountability. The “Grades for Greatness” initiative, is a service within the MASTERS framework that ensures that no child in MOVAL community grows up without a mirror that reflects their greatness.
