Holidays Are For Giving.....

This is something that I wrote up.  I'm hoping that on Dec 22nd people will come out and bring clothing to donate. Or even get in touch with a Wisdom Court member on how they can donate at any given time!  I am far from being well off and hell I have trouble paying bills just like everyone else but there are some people out there that are worse off than you!  Think about that not just at this time of the year but all year round! 

To all Wisdom Court members.....thank you for all that you do!! For all of the supporters who are ready to help this holiday season....thank you!!!  










In this season of giving, Wisdom Court Entertainment is trying to give back as well. 

On December 13th, a select number of members are going to The Ardent Folk Ministry "Neighbors-n-Need" program (through Grace Lutheran Church) to help serve food.This year WCE became a part of the Adopt-A-Family program through Family and Children’s Services of Central Maryland.  WCE adopted a family consisting of a single mother, 4 boys and 3 girls with ages ranging from 15 yrs. old to 1 month old. 

And on December 22nd, WCE is doing a winter clothing drive at their show at Fish Head Cantina 4802 Benson Ave, Baltimore, Md 21227 that will all be donated to New Life for Girls a program that is based in Westminster, MD. 

Also on the 26th Billy Lyve, who is the CEO with be working with the church he attends to hand out clothing to the homeless.

This is just a small summation of what Wisdom Court is doing for the holiday season.  Wisdom Court Entertainment is a family as well as a company.  Headed up by Billy Lyve, Wisdom Court Entertainment currently has an event once a month called Welcome to the Court at Fish Head Cantina that showcases artists in and around the city and even some out of state artists.  And sometimes has 2-3 events going on within a month in multi genres rock, hiphop, r&b and edm.

WCE also has Wisdom Court Kids which was officially registered in 2011.  This branch puts together events so that the kids have fun too.  For Halloween Wisdom Court Kids put together a trip to Jason’s Woods.  They also had an Easter egg hunt last Easter.  And in the upcoming year are planning new things for the kids that are inexpensive for the parents.
