Lights On Afterschool was a big success! 🌟 This national event celebrates After-School programs and shows how important they are for kids, families, and the community. After-School programs give kids a safe place to learn new things, explore their interests, and make friends. Our programs did amazing activities to mark the day and spread the word. At Walton, kids took part in a lively march, chanting about why After-School is so important around the community. Bronx Helpers hosted a mini resource fair outside, sharing information and doing surveys with the community. They also had NYC Emergency Management join to teach kids about safety steps! Meanwhile, our CLASP and MECA After-School programs showed off their art skills with creative posters to help spotlight the day. A special thank you to Assemblymember Landon Dais, who joined us to show his support and celebrate this day with us! We’re proud of all the activities our After-School programs put together to show just how much these programs make a difference! #LightsOnAfterschool #AfterschoolMatters #NYCEducation #BronxHelpers #NYC #Bronx #StreetGames #NewSettlement #nsccbx

🎉 Happy Settlement Housing Day! 🎉 Today, we celebrate Settlement Housing Day, recognizing the legacy of the settlement house movement and its commitment to empowering communities through affordable housing and supportive services. It’s a day to reflect on how safe, stable housing serves as a foundation for opportunity, growth, and community well-being. A special shoutout to Settlement Housing Fund (SHF), the parent organization of New Settlement, for their incredible work since 1969—developing 69 projects with over 8,900 homes that provide shelter and hope to 25,000+ residents, including formerly homeless New Yorkers. Their commitment to integrating commercial spaces and programs for education, wellness, and upward mobility continues to transform lives. Join us in celebrating their impact! 🏠 #SettlementHousingDay

We are heartbroken to share that Yoselyn Gomez, a long-time leader at CASA and a fierce advocate for our community, passed away Sunday morning. 💔 Yoselyn was a tireless and active member of our community, dedicating her life to building power and uplifting those around her. She touched so many lives, and her legacy will continue to inspire us all. We will miss her deeply and mourn alongside her family during this incredibly difficult time. Her daughter has created a GoFundMe to help with memorial expenses. If you are able, please consider donating and sharing. https://lnkd.in/dvJ9-fnr Let’s honor Yoselyn’s memory by continuing her mission of unity and justice for our community. 🕊️ #RestInPower #CommunityLeader

A huge congratulations to Bronx Helpers for unveiling their meaningful mural, "Bitter Litter," today at the Bronx Children's Museum as part of DYCD’s First Pitch competition! 🎉 This mural speaks to the impact of littering on our community and environment, and we’re so proud of the message it sends. A special thank you to local mural artist Andre Trenier for helping us bring our vision to life and to Bronx Borough President Vanessa Gibson for attending this important day. Her inspiring speech reminded us how we can use our art to stand up for ourselves and make our voices heard. Shoutout to the other top 2 teams, NYJTL Life Camp and The Pulse of The City, for sharing such powerful messages through their murals! And a big thank you to the Yankees and Bronx Children's Museum for making this opportunity possible! 🌍 #BronxHelpers #BitterLitter #FirstPitch #CommunityImpact #AndreTrenier #BronxChildrensMuseum
