The morning of Tuesday, February 28, 2017 was filled with joy and laughter as Mack Alive joined BABESWORLD for a delicious breakfast, at The Golightly Career and Technological Center in Detroit. The program opened with an introduction by former Michigan State Representative, Wayne County Commission, and City Council Member, Alberta Tinsley-Talabi, followed by a description of the program by our founder and leader, Rev. Dr. Lottie Jones Hood. In attendance were Yvonne Knox, BABES Angel and Board Member, representatives from Detroit Public Schools and Mentoring Programs, who learned of the strength and values brought to children through the BABES program. The event concluded with the BABES Body Puppets dancing to the BABESWORLD theme song, found at the beginning of this newsletter. This breakfast was held to recruit participants for our upcoming training on March 20-22, on Building a BABES Community with Mack Alive and also with Fort Beaufort in South Africa. More details will be found in next month’s issue of BABES Around the World, stay tuned!
