Some African teenagers in Morningside are ready to earn their own money and build a future with their talents. The New Mount Rose Teen Coffeehouse Academy will give them a place to learn by doing—starting with a cup of coffee and developing practical skills in entrepreneurship, hospitality, and financial literacy.
