 UPDATE: I am hearing Ackman will use his allotted time to speak as a pure Q&A with the audience. Given recent events, I am sure it is going to be well worth seeing…

This a great event for a great cause. All proceeds from the event go to the Boys & Girls Harbor. I’ll be there so if you decide to come, please stop by and say hello.

Given the timing of the event, one has to wonder if Ackman uses it to rebut recent bull cases for $HLF. He did say that Pershing would respond to $HLF “in the coming weeks”. This does match that time frame.

The mission of Boys & Girls Harbor is to empower children and their families to become full, productive participants in society through education, cultural enrichment, and social services.

About the Harbor:
Boys & Girls Harbor is a place in Harlem where young minds see a future for themselves and a world they never imagined. We identify the inherent gifts of young people and nurture them. We develop their intellectual character and expose them to experiences that help them discover their real potential. We give them a sense of place in the world — in the greatest city in the world. And it begins at the Heckscher Building, a vibrant hub for education and the arts.

The Harbor is an education-focused organization committed to providing an Individual Learning Plan for every Harbor student to assure comprehensive academic training and emotional development, enriched by infusing the arts into our culture and curriculum.

We help give Harlem kids perspective beyond a 10-block knowledge.
