SGA Students From Across City Visit City Hall.
On May 18,2023, My office had the privilege and honor to greet and welcome 11 students representing the Associated Student Government for Baltimore City at the Inaugural SGA Day at City Hall. The students, who are members of the SGA at Baltimore City College, Baltimore Polytechnic Institute, Baltimore School for the Arts, Bluford Drew Jemison STEM Academy, Edmondson Westside High School and Western High School - Students participated in a full day meeting their council representatives and leaders of city agencies, and learning how the city operates. They then met in groups to develop strategies to address some of the issues that impact Baltimore and its citizens.
The day ended with a discussion with Council President Nick Mosby before the scholars presented the group project they developed in during their think tank sessions. Afterwards, each student received a certificate of participation and Baltimore flag pins from the Office of the Council President.
45th District Leadership Meeting
On May 24,2023, Councilman Glover joined his colleagues, state elected officials, Commissioner Harrison and BPD Command staff for a leadership meeting to discussion the crime plan for the 45th district. The 45th district leadership team was able to ask the tough questions to Commissioner Harrison to understand what was being done in the district to lower crime and to keep citizens safe.
As Councilman Glover says often “Collectively we can change the trajectory of our
neighborhoods”
Broadway East Goes Green With Help of T6B and Amazon
On May 25, 2023, #Team13 was out in the community as Councilman Glover stood with T6B and their volunteers as they received $10,000 from Amazon to continue the work of making our communities greener and cleaner.
From their origins as a community service club for veterans, T6B has grown into a 501(c)(3) neighborhood development nonprofit that stewards 20+ acres of green space and provides volunteer and technical support to multiple community groups and schools. They support the communities they serve by combining the qualities of veteran-leadership – teamwork, duty, and love of country – with the guidance of neighborhood leaders and substantial volunteer power. Since their launch, more than 10,000 volunteers have contributed 30,000+ volunteer hours at a value of $1 million to the neighborhoods they serve.
One of the neighborhoods is right here in the District 13th in the Broadway east Community.
“The work they are doing in East Baltimore District 13 by planting trees and growing fresh produce is much needed and appreciated”, Councilman Glover.
