Our vision for community development is #Familyhood. The strategy to attain it is #1stSaturdays – The Official Monthly Volunteer/Recruitment Day at School sites.
#Familyhoos is a community development strategy that utilizes schools as the hub for community development. #Familyhood is driven by two motto’s. 1) The Friends of School Motto- which states: “Every School shall have a functioning Student Government Association, Parent Teacher Association and Alumni Association and 2) The Mo’ Better Food moot: which states: “every school shall have a garden, a farmers market and a grocery store.”
#Familyhood has two phases. the first phase is to attain the first two motto’s as mentioned above. In short, the school has these organizations functioning, garden in place and planning for future grocery store . Phase two is the Inter-generational enterprise phase of expanding these school based projects to actual school based-enterprises.
