Ypsilanti President's Report 3/26:Hello everyone! Here we are nearing the end of March 2024! We continue looking forward to an exciting new year of growth and accomplishments. Yesterday, Ms. Jillian Weemaes, a professional ESL instructor, enthusiastically taught us about what she does as an English as a Second Language teacher and quite a few aspects of such skills she and other ESL professionals provide to their students. We had Rtn Brian Yesigye, who is from Kampala, Uganda attend our meeting. We gave him a chance to share the community services and Bravo Shoes - Community Support. Bravo Shoes seeks to provide every child with a pair of shoes! He gave us a picturesque and literal view of conditions in the communities he serves! We also had a representative of Debbie Dingel's office in attendance. It was memorable!
