Congratulation and honor to Talibah Mateen, community organizer

It is on this 4th day of January, 2017 that the 5PNA bestows upon Safe and Sound's Ms. Talibah Mateen the esteem honor of a community heroine and difference maker. Mateen has dedicated her life to building quality lifestyles and crossed paths with 5PNA while its units functioned block by block. She tirelessly worked to help each unit achieve goals of cohesion, safety, improvement, addressing neighborhood concerns, providing resources, and helping to find ways to build an overall healthy community. We are honored to have Talibah Mateen as a community organizer and link to resources. Her resolve and dedication will live on in the lives of the members she has touched and those who will pass on her knowledge and life skills to others. We congratulate her on her retirement and pray for the best in everything she aims to accomplish in this next phase of her life. We love you and God Bless.

Honoring our senior Luncheon held on Dec 10, 2016

Honoring Our Seniors

To Revive our Community

Luncheon

Saturday, December 10^th, 2016

1-4:30 PM

Grace Fellowship Church

3879 N. Port Washington Avenue

Milwaukee, WI  53212

Background and Purpose

Our seniors have worked diligently to preserve our heritage, neighborhood cohesiveness, develop a sustainable neighborhood, and pass on critical thinking and life skills.  The Triangle, Williamsburg, and Grover Heights since the 1970’s have organized block clubs that formed an incorporated association in 2014 and have continued to thrive.

The purpose of this event is to honor those seniors, present and not present, who are willing to share histories and skills so that current residents can rebuild the glory days of the area and build a sustainable community that proactively solves problems and organically develops its area and people holistically. 

          Our chosen symbol of honor is the Lamp of Knowledge.  It is our elders who possess the knowledge, learning, and skills that will enable the community to proactively thrive in the days ahead.  This afternoon, they will pass this on while eating and playing games with their succeeding generations who will ask questions and share their own stories.

          We ask that during the dinner you switch seats and make sure that you are sitting at different tables so that you can learn from someone else.  At the end of the luncheon, you will fill out a survey that details who you met, their stories, and what you learned that you can apply in life.  You will also tell how it will help you to proactively solve problems in the community.  Our Seniors are asked to describe the event and what they have learned from the younger generations.  Each of you will also state what you will do to help develop your community and preserve our rich 5PNA history.

          We are looking forward to this day of feasting, learning, and fun here at our special hosts Grace Fellowship Church.  We appreciate their hospitality.
