Bronx Borough President Vanessa L. Gibson - Community Resources & Updates

 

Dear Neighbors,

 

Thank you for joining us for another week in review.

 

Last week, we stood with our seniors to denounce the rise in the violence against our older adults. Our seniors are the backbone of our communities and we will NOT tolerate any kind of violence or harm being inflicted upon them. Thank you to the NYPD, Mayor Adams, faith leaders and violence interrupters for their swift response and attendance to this matter.

 

We also hosted last week our Jamaican Flag Raising Ceremony and this week our Trinidad and Tobago Flag Raising Ceremony. Our Caribbean community has contributed so much to our beloved borough and we stand in celebration and solidarity with all of the Caribbean nations who fought for their independence from colonial rule.

 

Thank you to the Pakistani community for having us at the 75th Anniversary Celebration of Pakistan’s Independence! What an honor to join with you all during such a special occasion.

 

This Sunday, we will host our last Bronx Summer Concert Series of the season. It has been amazing to join with all of you every Sunday to sing and dance alongside our incredible performers. Thank you for joining us - we hope to see you one last time before we say goodbye to our 2022 Bronx Summer Concert Series!

 

If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact our office at 718-590-3500 or email us at webmail@bronxbp.nyc.gov.

 

In partnership,

Bronx Borough President Vanessa L. Gibson
