Mind Right-Body Tight Promo

Nov 23, 2010 by sari

Anacostia Youth want to be healthy, active and environmentally aware. They just need a vehicle to get them there. This summer the H.E.A.T. Haven team put together a promo about fitness and youth in Historic Anacostia. The video was funded by the Far Southeast Family Strengthening Collaborative, produced by the Multi-Media Training Institute and stars four youth from Anacostia.

Check out the “Mind Right-Body Tight” crew!

Thanks Kweku06 for your support! The kids in Anacostia are pretty amazing. Us old folks just need to give them more opportunities to show and prove.

More to come in 2011.
