My Project

The MBSK My Sister's Keeper program is a mentoring group that was first created in NYC by Barack Obama and the NYCDOE to help build up young people of color. This program is to inspire and educate young men and ladies to build character and respect for themselves inside and outside the classroom.

In addition to self-respect, we focus on purpose, self-confidence, accountability, faith, forgiveness, service, and paying it forward.

This group of young individuals take pride in giving back to their school community and will use these items to give to those accountable for them.
