When you’re a small grassroots organization, especially in Maryland, it’s tough to get people to take a chance on you. We’ve been denied over 90 grants, but we keep applying. We haven't been recognized by any State or City leadership, but we keep pushing, lol.
For the last 5 years, we’ve stayed consistent—same mission, same message, same support for the community.
And this picture right here shows what truly matters. It’s the people.
People who believe in what we’re doing. People who show up. People who keep going even when there’s no spotlight, no funding, and no guarantee of anything.
We might not have the big backing or recognition, but we’ve built something real—a team that cares and a community that continues to give.
And honestly, that means everything to us.
