Last Thursday, we gathered together for the inaugural Raising Spirits: Bourbon & BBQ, and what an incredible evening it was.

Guests enjoyed great food, bourbon tastings, and meaningful conversations, but the heart of the event was our five Mission Moments. These behind-the-scenes experiences gave supporters a closer look at how Metrocrest Services is walking alongside neighbors through a whole-household approach, helping individuals and families set goals, overcome barriers, and build brighter futures.

Thank you to everyone who joined us, volunteered, sponsored, and helped make this first event such a success. We're already looking forward to next year!

📅 Mark your calendars now: Thursday, October 14, 2027, for Raising Spirits: Tequila & Tacos. We'll be back onsite, at Metrocrest Services, with new experiences, new stories, and even more opportunities to see the impact happening every day.

Sometimes all it takes is one connection.

When Cristy attended a Metrocrest Services Workforce Development Workshop, she never imagined it would lead to long-term employment. Today, she's thriving in her "perfect-fit" role at Five Star Ford Carrollton.

🤝When businesses choose to invest in their community, the impact reaches far beyond their walls.

We're thankful for Five Star Ford Carrollton and Five Star Chevrolet, who joined forces as the Driving Community Change Sponsor for Raising Spirits: Bourbon & BBQ this Thursday. Their support doesn't stop there. Through Ford's Global Food Drive, the Sam Pack's Five Star Ford in Carrollton team collected an amazing 2,500 pounds of food to help neighbors in need.

Whether through volunteering, workforce collaboration, donation drives, or sponsorships, the Sam Pack's Auto Group team continues to show up for our community in meaningful ways.

👏Please join us in thanking them for their partnership in building a thriving community for all!
