🔥 🥘 That’s a wrap on AMEND of LBK 2025 Culinary Camp! 🍴 💥

The young men showed up every day with positive attitudes ready to learn. Not only did they serve amazing meals, they served respect, grit, and care for others.

👏🏾 Huge congratulations to our Chopped Competition Winners! 🏆- Your creativity and hustle in the kitchen was unmatched!

💪🏼 Special shout out to our guest judges for not only tasting the heat but also pouring into our guys with powerful feedback and encouragement.

This summer, the young men of AMEND didn’t just cook- they connected, they laughed, they collaborated, they listened, they made mistakes, we came up with solutions, and they cooked up major confidence.

Challenge. Cultivate. Change! That’s the AMEND of Lbk way! 🔥 👨🏾‍🍳 🥘

Shout out to Chef Rod- more than just a chef, he’s a connector, a mentor, and a true staple in the community. Whether he’s in the kitchen cooking up a delicious meal, or sharing knowledge with folks from all walks of life, Chef Rod leads with love, flavor, and purpose.

Grateful for the way he pours into our young men and shows that real impact starts with connection. 🍲 🍳

🥗 🔥 🍔 Week 1 of AMEND Culinary Camp is in the books… and it was a definite vibe! 🔥 🍔 🥗

From the kitchen to the pool, our young men showed out this week. On Wednesday, the guys cooked up some delicious Chicken Caesar Turkey wraps with homemade croutons (see Mr. Culver’s pic for reference lol 😆). On Thursday, they raised the bar again cooking up chicken quesadillas, burger sliders, and garden salads that looked- and tasted- like five star meals. 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟

And then came Friday-
Swim Day! 🌊💪🏾 the guys hit the pool, crushed the rock climbing wall, and took on every challenge with courage, positive attitudes and laughter.

This week we saw more than just cooking- we saw confidence rising, compliments flying, older guys helping out younger guys, and brotherhoods building. These young men are learning to lead by serving, and that accountability requires grace.

We are redefining the term, “boys will be boys..” into something that has a positive meaning.

🥘 🔥 Day 1 of AMEND Culinary Camp is in the books!

Today the young men kicked off camp with full hearts and left with even fuller stomachs.

The theme was “Recognizing our Blessings”- so as we shared our names, we shared something or someone we are thankful for! This set the tone for one productive and positive day! 🙌🏾

Major shout out to Chef Jeff and his entire team at Mission Cafe for showing our guys what a commercial kitchen looks like- 👩‍🍳 💥- and for blessing us with TWO delicious meals: homemade lasagna and Pizza that had everybody going back for seconds (and thirds!) 🍕🔥🍝

The reflections shared today laid a powerful foundation of gratitude, teamwork, and purpose… tomorrow, the guys get the throw on the aprons and start to cook for themselves and others! 💪🏾

Let’s cook, let’s learn, and challenge narratives together… one dish at a time! 🍴 💫

🔥 Big shout out to Chef Rod and the AMEND Together of Lubbock for cookin’ up some Wisdom today with the young men of YCare Camp! 👨🏾‍🍳 💬

The young gentlemen received a powerful life-lesson on Boundaries! We learned and practiced personal space, effective communication, respect, and the power of saying, “that makes me uncomfortable,” to our peers and adults.

We laughed, we learned, and we got 1% better today!

-Tomorrow, we gear up for AMEND Culinary Camp with Chef Rod and the young chefs! This is going to be a fun journey! 👨🏾‍🍳 🍲

🏀 WHAT. A. JOURNEY‼️ 💪🏾 👏🏾

The final buzzer just sounded on our AMEND Basketball Camp 🏀, and these past two weeks have been nothing short of transformational. The themes of Respect and Hustle echoed through every drill, every huddle, and every interaction- on and off the court. 💯

The young men didn’t just show up- they showed out. From perfecting their crossover, to picking up their teammates with words of encouragement, they embodied what it means to be leaders in action. 🫡

💥 This has been our strongest, most inspiring camp yet, and it’s all thanks to the energy, commitment, and synergy of the young men, their respective families and our AMEND staff.

A huge shout out to the parents and families who shared your sons and nephews with us- your trust fuels our mission to build a safe and thriving community of young men who lead by serving others.

👨🏾‍🍳 🍲 And we are not done yet- AMEND Culinary Camp kicks off July 8th, and we can’t wait to see our guys continue to cook up greatness in the kitchen, home, and the community.

The journey of self-betterment continues…

📣 AMEND Together Basketball Camp Update! 🏀

We were blessed to have one of Lubbock’s’ Home Town Heroes, Jarrett Culver, in the building this week, speaking life into our young men and reminding them what’s possible with hard work and character. 💪🏾🏋🏾‍♂️

Since day 1, a challenge was laid- Challenge yourself physically, mentally, emotionally, and even spiritually.

Phones?! Haven’t seen one!
Energy?! They hustle everywhere.
Mistakes?! We own them, learn from them, and bounce back stronger (w/o attitude!) 💪🏾

Today’s question for the guys?! What’s standing in the way of your progress today?! What can be done to move it?!

🚀 🥘 What an incredible way to close out the school year! On May 21st at the YWCA of Lubbock, the community came together for the AMEND Together of Lubbock End-of-Year Family Bash~and it did not disappoint.

A huge THANK YOU to the partners that made it a success-
•AMEND Together of Lubbock
•Guidance-Entrepreneurship & Outreach Center (GEO)
•Communities in Schools - South Plains
•Texas ACE of Lubbock ISD
•Rejuvenated Life Coaching (RLC)

…and of course, the true Rockstars in the kitchen: Chef Rod Hollins and our amazing Young Chefs, who not only prepared a mouthwatering meal but served it with love to every family in attendance. 👨🏾‍🍳 👩‍🍳 🍽️

All year long, we have challenged young people to be intentional about shaping their characters. We practiced healthy conflict resolution, discussed ways to lift one’s self-esteem, gave positive affirmations to others, set and achieved goals, held our heads when we missed some goals, and discussed positive ways to handle setbacks, we mapped out our traumas in safe places and actively healed in shared spaces…

Special shout out to the community for coming out in droves. Shout out to everyone who said motivating and encouraging words to the youth and their families.

The momentum and progress don’t stop… spots for our summer AMEND Together camps are open NOW! Sign up today and let’s get 1% better every day. 🦾
