Mz Shyneka along with a few of her Saving Our Daughters “Celebrity Godparent” mentors, Desire Ross from OWN’s Greenleaf, original member of Destiny Child, LaTavaia Roberson and, Ms. Precious of VH1’s Family Hustle, encouraged the girls all morning on the new animated series and key pointers about bullying.

Mz, Synehka opened up the back to school drive by showing an introduction video clip of the new HBO animated series, of “Esme & Roy.” Then our celebrity guest had an open discussion about how to respond to bullying, how to promote self-esteem and recited positive affirmations.
