January 1, 2014 -- President Barack Obama issued
a proclamation yesterday designating January 2014 as National Mentoring Month.
He stated, “In every corner of our Nation, mentors push our next generation to
shape their ambitions, set a positive course, and achieve their boundless
potential. During National Mentoring Month, we celebrate everyone who teaches,
inspires, and guides young Americans as they reach for their dreams.”
Through a partnership
with Los Angeles Music Center on 1-18-14 (MLK Jr. weekend), MusicUNTOLD
provided free admission and tickets to 50 Long Beach youth(primarily
Boys & Girls Club) with chaperons to attend mid day concert at the W.M.
Keck Foundation Children’s Amphitheatre (a hidden gem located on the
rooftop of the Walt Disney Concert Hall and adjacent to The Blue Ribbon
Garden) by BLACK VIOLIN (African American hip hop duo consisting
of two classically trained string instrumentalists with drummer and DJ).
