PURPOSE WITH POWER
Our Vision. Our Mission.
Building unity, opportunity, civic pride, and lasting community impact for Mariners Harbor and all of Staten Island.
A Tradition With Lasting Value
To establish Force MDs Way Legacy Day as a signature annual Staten Island tradition that celebrates culture, strengthens neighborhoods, showcases community pride, and creates lasting positive impact.
Legacy That Serves People
To unite Staten Island through music, service, education, recognition, and strategic community partnerships that connect residents to resources, inspire youth, support seniors, strengthen local businesses, and preserve the legacy of the Force MDs and Mariners Harbor.
A LEGACY ACROSS GENERATIONS
Rooted in History. Built for the Future.
The vision joins the pride and cultural achievement represented by the Force MDs with practical community benefit—creating space for elders to be honored, young people to be inspired, families to connect, businesses to grow, and Staten Island stories to be preserved.
