Words Beats & Life's Breakfast of Champions

 

Join Words Beats & Life for our inaugural Breakfast of Champions - taking place at Busboys and Poets. This event will be co-hosted by Mark Lawrence, Dr. Jared Ball, Ester Coleman, Esq., Candace Mickens, Mr. Kevin R. Harris, and Ms. Blythe K. Robinson and Ms. Janice Ferebee, MSW. With 22% of our budget coming directly from public support and earned income, we are asking YOU to be a champion and support the work we do with DC youth and families through hip-hop.

 

With a minimum donation of $20, you get to enjoy breakfast amongst other WBL champion supporters, staff, board members and former students at one of the hottest spots in the U Street Corridor. Additionally, we will be honoring three of our champions: Dwayne "Storm da Unpredictable" Henry, Rashid Darden, and Fair Chance. Come out and celebrate how hip-hop is transforming individual lives and whole communities on Friday, Dec. 18th at 8:30am-9:30am!

ABOUT WBL:

Founded in 2002, Words Beats & Life transforms individuals and whole communities through the core elements of hip-hop culture. At the heart of all that we do is the belief that hip-hop can serve as the necessary filter between hope and despair for the youth of the District of Columbia.

We look forward to starting our morning with YOU!
