The K Woods Foundation is set for the return of the second edition of the ‘Peace & Unity Festival,’ a pride and unity festival in Staten Island on Saturday, 31st August, 2024, from 5 PM to 8 PM.

The event this year will be held at the Snug Harbor Cultural Center & Botanical Garden and will feature performances by Jim Jones, Julez Santana, Smiff N Wessun, Beanie Sigel, Freeway, Connie Diamond, Abby Jasmine, Chey, Freekey Zekey and more, in addition to a special by Ghostface Killah & Friends. Hosted by Rayyy Rayy, this yearly festival seeks to unite the Staten Island community for yet another remarkable experience of harmony and unity, building on the success of its first year.

“I’m so proud to see the youth in my neighborhood finally get what they deserve. A nice, clean, safe space to play and enjoy their childhood. I am so blessed to have grown up here and be in the position to come home and open up new possibilities for learning and growth for so many kids who don’t have the opportunities I did,” said Kareem “Kay” Woods, head of the K Woods Foundation, who has been proactive with several projects benefiting the youth of Park Hill this year including spearheading the groundbreaking of a new basketball court and playground.

Snug Harbor, one of Staten Island’s most famous locations, will host the Peace & Unity Festival. It offers the ideal setting for a day devoted to honoring the community and promoting unity. Family-friendly activities, local talent showcases, food vendors, and well-known performers’ live performances will all be at the event.

Creating Bridges and Honoring Community, Peace & Unity Festival celebrates a day of song, tradition, and unity.

Kareem “Kay” Woods established the K Woods Foundation to empower young people in the Park Hill neighborhood of Staten Island and beyond. The foundation offers tools and chances for youth to grow, learn, and achieve through various projects and programs. The organization is leaving a lasting impression on the lives of innumerable people by constructing new leisure areas and organizing neighborhood gatherings like the Peace & Unity Festival.
