"PROJECT"
Michael Baisdens Million Mentor Campaign:
On May 13th 2010 Michael and George came to Coppin State University in Baltimore Md.
There were several venders taking part in this great celebration and many people showed up for this event. It was clearly obvious that people in our community recognized the immediate need for more leadership, rolemodels, general guidance and support. New B'ginnings took great pride in representing its position by communicating, networking with youth, parents and other mentoring organizations and leaders.

AS WE CONTINUE TO EXPLORE OUR MISSION WE STRIVE TO BUILD SOUND RELATIONSHIPS WITH PARTNERSHIPS AND OTHER ORGANIZATIONS.
Maryland Mentoring Partnership is an organization located in Baltimore City that truly supports Youth Mentoring Programs like New B'ginnings Mentoring Foundation. They have been very helpful with providing leadership, support and other resources to help us express our mission. When starting any grassroots type organization it's always ideal to collaborate with organzations of common goals and objectives. During these difficult times in our economy, it's not that common when many establishments have ever offered support. As a result of this relationship, Maryland Mentoring Partnership has sincerly demonstrated a valiant effort and as of this report we at New B'ginnings Mentoring Foundation are truly grateful.
