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

 

Dear Neighbor,

 

Thank you for joining us for another week in review.


The week started off with us at A Night in Full Bloom, raising awareness of fibroids and their impact on women’s health. We are so grateful to have joined this incredible group of influential and inspiring women to share our stories and discuss work to educate and provide more outreach on fibroids.


Next up was NYCHA Family Day, where we came together with our local Tenants Association and their resident communities to show love and admiration for everything that they do. It was a day full of fun activities and recreation that showed forth the unity within our beloved communities.


Last, but certainly not least, we were at this year's Bronx Dominican Day Parade along the Grand Concourse and the Dominican Heritage Breakfast that kicked off the festivities. We're grateful for the vibrant energy and love from the community at the Dominican Day Parade and Dominican Heritage Breakfast in the Bronx, and we want to thank all of our colleagues in government who came out to show love and support to our Dominican communities.


We also want to thank everyone who has joined us for our Bronx Summer Concert Series! We kicked things off earlier this summer at the Bronx Night Market in Fordham Plaza, and we will be returning for a second round on Saturday, August 3rd, from 4pm to 10pm. We are traveling across the borough this summer visiting our local parks and providing free entertainment for our residents and families. Click here for a full listing of our summer concerts. 


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


IN THE COMMUNITY


Last week, we joined A Night in Full Bloom - raising awareness of fibroids and their impact on women’s health. We're so grateful to join this incredible group of influential and inspiring women to share our stories and discuss work to educate and provide more outreach on fibroids. A special thank you to our Hosts, Cynthia Bailey & Kym Lee, and our special guests, Kenya Gibson, Angela Yee, and Cara Maria. We are grateful to our Founder & CEO of USA Fibroids Clinic, Dr. Yan Katsnelson, for your commitment and leadership in creating important spaces to discuss fibroids and our collective work. Thanks to everyone who joined us from near and far for an inspiring night in full bloom.



Additionally, we had a great time with our residents and families at Moore Houses Family Day and 1010 East 178th Street Family Day. Thanks to our wonderful Tenants Associations for bringing fun activities and recreation to our communities by showing love to our NYCHA families. 



Lastly, were grateful for the vibrant energy and love from the community at the Dominican Day Parade and Dominican Heritage Breakfast in the Bronx! Thank you to my colleagues in government for all of your continued support for the diverse communities in our borough. Your spirit and culture light up our streets and hearts.
