With a stack of pepperoni pizzas sitting on the cafeteria table in front of them, a group of boys from Tacoma's Birney Elementary School waited patiently while two other boys meticulously counted out the number of pieces available. Then, the young men of the Tacoma Gents after school program worked together to evenly distribute the slices to one another, and also to students and adults from another group who shares their meeting room.
Learning to share their pizza is just a slice of how these boys are working together to grow as leaders and make a positive impact in their school and community.
