The Lupe Fiasco Foundation, Daughters of Donia and Assist Her, Inc. have planned an event on Saturday, Dec. 5, to help change the teen pregnancy statistics @ the Paul Robeson High School in Chicago.
"The After I Met a Boy" event will be held from 8:30 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., on Sat., Dec. 5, at Paul Robeson High School on 6835 S. Normal Blvd.
Samantha Coleman and Ayesha Jaco created the "After I Met a Boy" empowerment conference focused on sexual education, prevention and mentoring for the ladies of Paul Robeson High School.
...and although this event is catering towards 350 ladies, and all the speakers are women, there will be a notable male guest in the crowd.
"We have He Say/She Say, which is a panel that talks about dating values and standards," said Jaco, in reference to an idea sparked by True Star magazine. "
Since Lupe's Foundation is tied into this, we need a male draw, and so he agreed to do it. Lupe is from Chicago, it's a Chicago and national issue, and he's a positive artist."
Assist Her was created in 2006. The Daughters of Donia mentoring program started in May 2008, and the Lupe Fiasco Foundation is in the beginning stages and was created in October 2009...
