The youth of Boxing Out Negativity had some great ideas for how to contribute to anti-violence and were awarded a $1,000 grant to bring their ideas to fruition. Thanks to UCAN for administering the grant process and throwing a great community celebration where the grant awardees were recognized, “Kick Back & Peace.” It gave Boxing Out Negativity members a chance to practice their ball throwing skills for when they rent a dunk tank of their own! (Breon scored the first dunk, well done!)
