The highly anticipated AAYHF Talent Showcase was Saturday, January 20!

The African American Youth Harvest Foundation’s Talent Showcase was an amazing event! What a fantastic opportunity for the community to come together, celebrate talent, and support young people as they shine on stage. Contestants in the showcase were eligible to win a variety of prizes!

Thank you to all of the talented contestants that came out last night as well as our wonderful audience who cheered everyone one!

Here is only a few highlights from the show!

What a weekend blast with AAYHF & Tupperware!

AAYHF & Tupperware held a Tupperware party this past Saturday at the African American Youth Harvest Foundatio n that was a fun-filled learning experience for the entire family. This was a free event!
