Linda L. Kemp 
Founder of Bringing The Peace Incorporated

Thank you for your inquiry about Bringing the Peace Inc. and our Impact Community Initiatives. As a lifelong Bronx resident, I am inspired by my mother’s belief that we are our brothers’ and sisters’ keepers, which fuels my commitment to community Advocacy and service.

Institutions and MEDICC, Various NYC & State Certifying organizations. 

I founded the “Bringing the Peace” initiatives programing to promote peaceful engagement in marginalized communities, helping to equip individuals with essential tools to achieve their goals while enhancing overall community wellness. We prioritize unbiased, multigenerational, and multicultural engagement, fostering positive relationships and inspiring a sense of ownership and relationship among community members. Our partnerships with local organizations enable us to address diverse needs and uplift families.

As an activist, I advocate for positive change and essential legislation. My initiatives encompass community uplift programs, anti-violence campaigns, and health awareness events such as the Women of Color Breast Cancer Walk, now in its seventh year. We also celebrate cultural events like Juneteenth and collaborate with various stakeholders to strengthen community support.

Through our Bringing the Peace initiatives, we have provided food, clothing, and advocacy for our community, distributing thousands of pounds of food and essential items over the past 15 years. Our BTP 365 Healthy Initiatives include the Community Closet, which supplies household goods and clothing, made possible through partnerships with organizations like Green Standards, Burlington and Good360.

We actively implement health-related projects to promote healthier lifestyles, working alongside local schools, BronxCare Hospital, organizations, and officials to build strong community relationships.

We appreciate your interest and support as we strive to empower and uplift our community. Together, we can create a brighter, healthier future for all.

We operate independently of government entities; however, we recognize the importance of collaboration when it comes to driving impactful policies or implementing specific programs. Our organization, The Peace Inc., understands that meaningful change often requires partnership. Thus, we often work closely with local government bodies to enhance and deliver essential services. Through these collaborations, we aim to enable public programs that provide significant benefits to the community as a whole, ensuring that our efforts align with the needs and aspirations of those we serve.

Voluntarism plays a crucial role in our community, as it is essential for supporting a wide range of initiatives within our parks and community. We rely on the dedication and enthusiasm of volunteers to help with food and clothing drives, ensuring that those in need have access to essential resources. Our health fairs and educational events also greatly benefit from volunteer involvement, as passionate individuals generously contribute their time to educate and assist others.

Moreover, the efforts of volunteers are instrumental in organizing and executing community events. From setting up to breaking down these gatherings, their "people power" enables us to create memorable experiences that foster wellbeing and strengthen relationships among community members. By engaging with others and working together toward common goals, we can enhance our environment and build lasting connections, making our community a better place for everyone.
