Earlier this month, our incredible AmeriCorps members came together for a meaningful service project to support our students as we head into summer.

They created over 150 hygiene kits and completed the assembly of 200 Student Close-Out kits alongside our partners at Moody Nolan—ensuring our students have the essentials they need to kick off summer learning strong.

These kits were distributed across all five of our partner schools, supporting the students we have the privilege of working with every day this school year.

We’re so grateful for the dedication, teamwork, and heart that made this possible!

✨ Last day of school! ✨
From the very first day to the very last, our AmeriCorps members have been there—showing up every single day to support students’ academic and personal growth. Because showing up truly matters. 💙

One student said it best in a note to a member:
"This is the last day of school and I want to appreciate all of your hard work. Thank you."

Moments like this are what it’s all about

This afternoon, we gathered for a special lunch to celebrate the leadership of our Senior Corps members as they wrap up two incredible years of service and step into their next chapter. ✨

They took time to reflect, share their experiences, and pass along advice to our newest class of Returning AmeriCorps Members who’ve committed to another year of impact.

Congratulations to all—your dedication, leadership, and contributions have made a lasting difference. We’re excited to see what lies ahead for each of you. 💙
