As we reflect on the year 2024, it’s clear that it has been a remarkable and transformative period for our organization. Moving into our new center has been a pivotal milestone, and it wouldn’t have been possible without our donors, funders, volunteers and corporate partners. This new space is already proving to be a hub of growth, opportunity, and community.

Since opening our doors just 8 months ago, we’ve expanded our team to 24 staff members and have welcomed 80 volunteers. Together, we’ve had the privilege of serving over 5,000 individuals who have experienced all that our new space has to offer.

As we move forward, we remain focused on strengthening our organization’s capabilities , cultivating a strong and vibrant culture, and continuing to enhance our infrastructure. We’re actively working on executing our strategic plan to ensure sustainable growth and even greater impact. We appreciate Bank of America for supporting our long-term success by awarding us the prestigious Neighborhood Builders Award.

None of this would be possible without your unwavering support. Your belief in our mission empowers us to help young people thrive and reach their full potential. 

Looking ahead, we are committed to being innovative problem solvers, conveners, and accountable stewards of the trust you’ve placed in us. Together, we are building something special.

Thank you for being part of our journey.

Future Forward, 
Celeste
