Cardi linked up with the mayor backstage during a recent tour stop, where he asked her to help judge the city’s official 2‑K jingle competition — a playful, community‑driven way to spread the word about the new program.

Applications for the Universal 2‑K Program open June 2 through June 26, giving NYC families a full window to enroll. But the administration wants residents to help amplify the message — hence the jingle contest, which invites New Yorkers to submit original 15‑ to 30‑second tunes encouraging families to apply.

The winning jingle will become the program’s official theme, airing on local radio and across city channels.
