I was told you should never post on Fridays, but hey. After 10 years of working in youth development with students ages 11 through 20, I want to take our efforts deeper. I realize that some of my colleagues on LinkedIn may not have all the information about what we do or how we do it, which can hinder their ability to connect with us on a deeper level. So, here’s an opportunity to share more about our vision. As I move forward in my career, and as we look to relaunch in FY 25-26, we’re setting a goal to serve 100 youth in a really deep and meaningful way. Now, I know some of you might think, "100 kids? That doesn’t sound like much." But it’s important to understand that we’re talking about making a profound, life-changing investment in these kids. We’re not an organization that’s focused on serving a large number of kids with a surface-level, quick fix. No, we are committed to serving the most disadvantaged youth who need—and deserve—a deep, sustained investment. Our goal is not just to reach more youth, but to truly transform the lives of the ones we do serve. This is what makes our approach different. As we gear up for this next phase, I invite you to learn more about our work and how you can help us make a lasting impact. Join us for next?week's RCMI?Seminar?Series?featuring Mr. Alphonso "Mayo" Jr.,?Founder, Servant Leader, and CEO of?Mentoring Mentors, Inc,?on Wednesday, September 25, 2024, 2-3 pm. Please come and support Mr. Mayo, a Morgan CARES Community Partner for an?in-person,?interactive presentation at Dixon'sTravelers?Auditorium, Room 125. Thank you Morgan State University Center for Urban Health Disparities Research and Innovation and Ingrid Tulloch and Dr. Elliott

On this day, we pause to honor the memory of those we lost on 9/11 and to recognize the extraordinary courage of first responders, survivors, and all who came together in the face of tragedy. We remember the resilience of a nation united, standing strong in the pursuit of hope, healing, and peace. #neverforget #september11
