Huge shoutout to @PNCBank for their generous $25,000 grant towards our Biz Pod program. This funding will uplift black youth as they journey from incarceration to entrepreneurship in the local creative economy. Thank you PNC!!! 🎉 #creativeyouthdevelopment
Enjoyed visiting with @DavidsHarpFound this week to share my story and discuss challenges and potential solutions for youth in D4. Our youth are so inspiring and deserve our investment.
Thank you for this rich discussion and for having me!

@election16news@CoxCalifornia We use the the power of music to reach young people experiencing homelessness, and build mentoring relationships that encourage them to check into the local shelter were they have access to housing resources. The donation was to build a space where they can attend school now.
We're still crying (happy) tears over the 200+ submissions we received for our Kindness and Charity Contest
So many kind kids nominated well-deserving charities.
Check out Vikram, Reese, and Jasmine's thoughtful submissions. @1hopeunited@DavidsHarpFound
