#familyhood is one word to describe a collaboration at every school site that utilizes the schools inter-generational population, location and attributes to improve the school and its surrounding community. #familyhood is driven by two motto’s: 1) The Friends of School motto states: “every school shall have a functioning student government association, parent teacher association and alumni association.” 2) Mo’ Better Food motto: “every school shall have a garden, a farmers market and grocery store.” #1stSaturdays is the “do now” strategy to advance any community towards #familyhood. #1stSaturdays represents the first Saturday of every month as the monthly volunteer/ recruitment day at school site. Schools can sign up at 1stSaturdays.com.
Hotep is the official mascot to promotes #familyhood globally.
