Yankee Tickets for Mohogany who can't wait to see her first baseball game

Posted Aug 6, 2019
Mohogany is apart of a special group of young adults that we have served as their CASA advocates at some point, if not still working with them while in care. They are a cohort that we've trained and supervised to facilitate panel presentations around the city ( and even state) to share their stories of having been in the foster care system in hopes of creating change and reform. They would like to try and attend a game as a group as a community builder either on 8/16 and 8/30.

Mohogany is 25 years old and lives in NY

Mohogany was discharged from care, but is still very active with CASA! She is a member of CASA's Youth Leadership Council - she started while she was pregnant over a year ago! During her pregnancy she became a powerful advocate for young parents who are in care. Since giving birth to her daughter, she has been a rockstar of a mother! Mohogany loves to read (urban fiction mostly!) and loves to read out loud to her daughter. She says even though she doesn't understand the words yet, she hopes to instill the value of reading as soon as possible! She wants to become a social worker when her daughter is old enough to go to school!

"George Steinbrenner said, “Surround yourself with amazingly intelligent men & women. The people I work with not only are smarter than I am, possessing both intellectual & emotional intelligence, but also share determination to succeed. I will not make an important decision without them.” Look at the others with you at the game. You are all the intelligent men & women George spoke about. Continue making positive changes in your lives & in the universe. Enjoy the game & of course…Go Yanks!! – “T”"
