Current departments include video games, movies, advice, health and beauty, crafts, shopping, (extreme) sports, and news. MonkeeMag.com will go live in June. We are expanding MonkeeMag in March and welcome youth from the neighborhood to apply. We will have 10 openings and the cost is minimal-$20 per week. MonkeeMag.com meets for three hours every Saturday from 5:00 until 8:00pm. Each MonkeeMag gathering includes a family-style dinner, an entrepreneurial lesson (branding, marketing, finance, management, etc.), and activities that contribute towards content for MonkeeMag.com (watching movies and reviewing them, playing video games, shopping, and learning health and beauty tips.)
