More Indianapolis Schools to participate in the popular program to encourage our youth and show community support
Earlier this week, over 70 prominent men from the Indianapolis community attended a rally at the Tindley Preparatory Academy to show their support for the young men attending school there. A human tunnel was formed by men from the community as the Tindley scholars ran through getting “high fived" starting their school day.
The program was a huge success, (see Indy Star article indy.st/1Rrrc4e ) and U S Attorney Josh Minkler would like to extend an invitation to all men in this community to come forward and show their support for the youth in our community.
“I was uplifted by the show of support by so many caring men at Tindley Prep earlier this week," said Minkler. “The rally gave me renewed confidence, that together, we can make a difference in keeping our children safe and reducing violent crime in our neighborhoods. I challenge every person in Indianapolis to come out to future events and do your part to support our youth."
