families together by sponsoring an Easter Carnival Bash, Father’s Day Basketball
Tournament, Mother’s Day Softball Game, Back to School and Community give back
day, Halloween Party , Feeds homeless & Senior Citizens on Thanksgiving Day, and
Christmas giveaways. It represents a unique source of strength and togetherness,
says Anthony ‘Hunc” Nixon, president of HUNC. I want the children and community
of Harlem to know that someone cares about them and they can have fun in their
very own community. This is just my way of giving back to the community that I
was raised in, work in, and live in.

today’s youth we are building stronger families and safer communities.
