All the rappers who have come out of Harlem and NYC should really think about giving a huge donation to HSA instead spending it on bling and bentleys. That would be a nice change.
ReplyDeleteLet me just say that I admire this blog. Came across it through a different search, the Blueprint film.
ReplyDeleteAnonymous - splendid idea! It would have such a major impact and would show what it truly means to give back to the community.
ReplyDelete@Anonymous #1...I completely agree and am baffled (well not really) why none have stepped up to the plate. A few of them could easily set HSA on a path of sustainability...
ReplyDelete$700,000 reserve and 1.5 million dollar UMEZ Grant "evaporated" since 2007 according to newspaper reports. Anyone who knows the school knows competent professionals were put out by incompetent posers over the past 3 years, knows also that the Board has been a disgrace to the concept of "leadership" for some time. What really needs to happen is State Attorney Generals Office get involved, investigate, and put some people in jail.
