Antonio Thomas identified himself as representing 1 Day 1 Power and asked the council for assistance to provide meals for students attending a "man up summit" scheduled for Thursday, the 23rd. He said the nonprofit would host young men from eight schools to discuss empowerment, decision-making and life choices and requested funds for breakfast and lunch.
Council members asked for vendor information and said they could help coordinate if the food provider is a city vendor; one member said immediate city funds before Thursday were not possible but asked Thomas to provide vendor details and a card so staff could follow up.
No funding decision was made at the meeting; council members committed to follow up with Thomas and staff after the session.
