This past October, The FBE celebrated 5 years of service to our community. During the month, we also hosted a fundraiser to support @ocms_fbeschools - a community-based, culturally affirming, Montessori preschool in Oakland.

We are so pleased to acknowledge and express our extreme gratitude for the folx who helped us surpass our fundraising goal!

We are thankful for Anthony, Ceairra, Donald, Marie, Maritza, and Mike & Sharon. Your teamwork raised enough funds to purchase new authentic Montessori materials for the classroom!

Despite the current political climate in the US, we have been so full of hope thanks to the generous outpouring of support by so many. Now, more than ever, we choose sharpen our focus inward on our own community.

For The FBE, this is a season of gratitude and we choose to spend the rest of November in a spirit of thankfulness. We acknowledge and extend gratitude to those who have poured so much into us and thus, into the Black community.

Thank you to our Board Members, @ginjack2002 and @ethancashley for your unwavering support and wise guidance.

Someone told us that it's a gift to still have friends from high school, but I know there's some folx out there still rocking with their friends from earlier than that!

Who is your friend that you've known the longest (who is your real Day 1)?

Many have asked us why did we decide to focus our program on schools and knowledge. Our ancestors knew the importance of education and risked their lives to get it.

Fortunately, because of their sacrifice, we can reach new heights such as creating FBE Schools. For more information, visit the website or check out our social pages.
