Expanding Impact and Deepening Roots Across PA: Reflections from Our Harrisburg’s Juneteenth Experience!

As part of our initiative to deepen our roots and expand our impact across the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, we participated in Harrisburg’s Juneteenth Celebration over two days.

For this year’s Freedom Day festivities, we curated a powerful collection of children’s books that celebrated Black excellence, shared inspiring stories to ignite young minds, and uplifted narratives that illuminated our resilience, the beauty of our creativity, and the power of community love. From history-makers who dreamed bold dreams to Black innovators who used their brilliance to solve pressing challenges facing Black communities and the world, our selection sparked meaningful conversations and connections.

It was an honor and a pleasure to fellowship and dream out loud with so many people committed to making our world better. We like to thank the Young Professionals of Color--Greater Harrisburg for warmly welcoming us to the great city Harrisburg! We look forward to working together in the future!

We even got a chance to listen to our Representative La'Tasha, who was the Honorary Co Chair give remarks! Shoutout to my brother and fellow Lincoln University of PA Alum @Westburn Majors for stopping by and supporting us!
