Top 30 Under 30 Honoree Celebration Ceremony

Be the change you wish to see in the world. Indeed it was such a joy to lead this youth empowering passion project during Caribbean American Heritage Month as I joined with Dr. Claire A. Nelson White House champion of change, Maxine Barnett and team to lead the Recognition Ceremony of this year’s top 30 Under 30 honorees who travelled from different states and countries.

Thanks to our host Executive Director Mr. Robert Le Hunte and team, we
converged at the Inter-American Development Bank on June 14th.

Personally, my heart bursts with joy as the youth ambassadors passionately presented their goals and innovative ideas.

These aspiring leaders shared projects ranging from Robotics, climate change vs youth inclusivity, carnival’s exciting cultural events amidst the impact on the environment, carwash waste management, foster care, homelessness, disability efforts. Other projects that came to light by this year’s Ignite Caribbean
young leaders were on advocacy towards Banned Books, education, and more.

Thanks Miranda Caribbean Community in Philadelphia for presenting each honoree with gift packages including copies of my books on Success Strategies, leadership, immigrant women experiences etc

We appreciate the efforts of our co-chairs Bradley Downer and Stephanie Simon for their outstanding support! To our judges Abby Charles Maxine Barnett MSc BA CPC Janeala Morsby, PhD Dr. Lisa K. Soares Kimberly campbell Miranda Alexander.
