H.Y.P.E. (Helping Young People Elevate) After School Program – Black History Month Edition
Join us for Taste of Heritage, a hands-on program that celebrates Black History Month by exploring the powerful connection between food, culture, and identity.
Led by EatWell Exchange, this interactive experience brings Black culinary traditions to life through engaging stories, meaningful conversations, and a fun no-cook food activity featuring familiar flavors.
This isn’t just about cooking—it’s about celebrating heritage, building confidence, and discovering the stories behind the food we love.
Sponsored by BSO Law Enforcement Trust Fund and Friends of Broward County African American Research Library and Cultural Center.
