“Hi Project Uplift Family!!!
 
I wanted to share a sweet life update that will definitely bring some smiles! 
 
Me and my best friend, Grace Money, joined project uplift fall of 2019, during our freshman year of college, where we met Harmoni. She was a shy, sweet, and fun 8-year old girl. That blossomed into having her sister, Holli, join us on our adventures once she turned 5. Her youngest sister, Haiden, who was 2 months old when we first met their family, felt like a sister, too, even when she was too young to join in on our official Project Uplift hangouts. 
 
Flash forward to a few weekends ago, Grace was the Maid of Honor in my wedding. Harmoni joined our wedding party as a junior bridesmaid, and Holli and Haiden were our flower girls. It’s so hard to believe that almost 7 years later, here we are. The true sisterhood that was born in the fall of 2019 through this program is one of my biggest blessings in my life. 
 
I wanted to say THANK YOU for all of the work you all put in everyday and for giving us a place to connect with the younger generation of Auburn’s community. I wanted to share some pictures with you guys to share the lasting impact you have had on my life!!!!!! We are all forever grateful!!!!!” -Chloe Harland

There’s something really special about the way Stella and Alden have shown up for their mentee, KaiLoni over the past few years 🥹 you can just tell how safe and loved she feels with them. She’s always wrapped around them with hugs and the biggest smile, and it’s so sweet to see how comfortable she is because of the way they show up for her week after week.

So thankful for people like them in Project Uplift who make such a real impact just by being consistent, patient, and full of love!

“It’s been such a sweet experience getting to be big sisters to KaiLoni. We love our adventures like the park, Funtastic, the movie theatre, and especially our favorite, Olive Garden for dinner! Getting to watch KaiLoni grow up over the past 3 years is really special. Each week, we look forward to our time together just as much as she does—if not more! KaiLoni will always have a very special place in our hearts. We love her so much ❤️”
