RALLY TO PROMOTE PEACE & EMPOWER YOUNG PEOPLE

Each summer, we present the “Rally to Promote Peace and Empower Young People” to help further our mission to combat community deterioration and juvenile delinquency in Bedford Stuyvesant, Brooklyn. Bringing together the entire community, the rally is an opportunity to showcase inspirational speakers who present alternative strategies to violence and conflict-resolution techniques. Moreover, we promote music that does not normalize violence or encourage young people to view themselves negatively. And we feature talented young singers, dancers, musicians, and spoken word artists. The rally is also a fun event for the community. We provide young people with free haircuts, cotton candy, t-shirts, food, beverages, and giveaway prizes. In addition, the event kicks off with a youth basketball game!
