"Glo 4 Sho" Db4 Spring Break Glow in Dark Teen 2013



March 29th, 2013 DB4 hosted the "Glo 4 Sho" Teen Spring Break Party. Our goal was to get the youth's input on some of the upcoming programs and events we will be implementing as well as give them something positive to do during their spring break. So we decided to conduct a FREE Glow in the Dark Party/Food Drive. The event was successful. 50 teens between the ages of 12 and 16 came out and completed surveys sand donated can goods. All cans good where giving to Bebashi Food Drive. The atmosphere was positive and it gave DB4 a chance to connect with the youth outside of all the formal business we conduct in the community.
