Our @PeekskillMBK Cooking Club recently had a visit and cooking lesson with Chef Terence Junius Harvey! Harvey has worked on James Beard Award-winning cookbooks, & has appeared on HBO Max, Netflix, and even won an episode of the Food Network's popular cooking game show, Chopped.
Yesterday MBK had the pleasure of welcoming @terencejharvey a renowned Chef and leader in the Culinary Arts. Our young men had the opportunity to learn from the experiences of Chef Terence and better understand the resilience it takes to be successful in perusing their dreams.
“I have a dream.” Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s words continue to remind us that hope, courage, and action can change history.
Through My Brother’s Keeper Alliance, that dream lives on through our six milestones and in our MBK Ambassadors across the country who are choosing to lead, serve, and stand up for justice in their communities every day.
This MLK Day, we honor Dr. King by uplifting the next generation of leaders who are carrying his legacy forward and turning dreams into action.
PHS students proudly represented at the @SunRiverHealth 3 Kings Event today. Thank you to My Brothers Keeper, The Latino Culture Club and The PHS Dance Team for showcasing our talent and Peekskill Pride.
It's always a blessing to host our annual MBK Holiday Celebration @PeekskillCSD - Fun Games and prizes, words of wisdom from all directions, Highlighting service within our community, and above all else, the holiday fellowship. Truly- #IAmMyBrothersKeeper#LiftAsWeClimb
It was a pleasure to support PCSD's Saturday Academy Winter Wonderland Event!! The boys had an opportunity to run the Game room and they ran with it! Nothing but positive vibes and conversations with the young ones. MBK- We Lift As We Climb!
It was great to be in the HOUSE with #HudsonValleyMBK
Some takeaways:
-Find ur people...
-Never let anyone tell u who u are!
-U are the author of ur story!
-I am not the same person I was before MBK...

collective is all about."
