🧠 MINDSET MONDAY with Dr. Aquil Basheer

"You don't become great because you're talented or skilled. You become great because you EXECUTE!"
— Dr. Aquil Basheer

Too many have uphill ambitions but downhill habits.

Talent gets you noticed. Ex*****on gets results.

Discipline, consistency, and follow-through—that's what separates those who talk from those who lead.

At BUILD-PCITI, we don't reward potential. We reward performance.

We know that many families in our community will face hardships in November while SNAP benefits are paused. As a small business, we can’t do everything, but we can do something.

Beginning Friday, November 7, we’re bringing back and officially launching Spreading the LOVE Bags :free weekend healthy meal bags for school-age children whose parents need a little extra help until school meals resume on Monday. Because no child should start the weekend hungry.

When: Fridays, 5 PM – 6 PM
Where: Mango Mangeaux (community pickup location)
Who: Local school-age children
What: Free weekend “Spreading the LOVE Bags” including two breakfasts, two lunches, two dinners, snacks, and fresh fruit — prepared or donated through Mango Mangeaux.

We’ll offer these bags every available Friday in November.

Offered in limited quantities, each act of love is made by hand. Must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian over the age of 18.

🧡 Spreading Love, One Bag at a Time.
