Arianna, we so very much appreciate the gift of love that you shared with us and the reminder that we all have that light of a star inside of each one of us. You left us with a feeling of grounding, hope and the knowing that – all we need is what we may already have – we just have to look inside – realize, develop and harness it.

With your support, we were able to offer 23 free summer programs, covering a variety of topics for grades K-12 students, including cooking, learning about plants and invasive species, goal setting, hip hop dance, deepening violin techniques, financial literacy, drawing, poetry, and songwriting. Over 400 students participated in these programs and shared that it is nice to be taught by talented professionals.
