💗 Showing Up for a Cause! 💗

Our Girls ARE & Boys CAN students have been busy putting their creativity to work decorating bras for the 16th Annual Bras Across the River!

Today, we’re coming together to walk, raise awareness, and show our support for everyone impacted by breast cancer.

It’s important that our young people understand that giving back doesn’t always require something big. Sometimes, it’s simply about showing up, lending a hand, and supporting others.

Proud of our students for being part of something meaningful! 💕

Our Girls ARE & Boys CAN students had a great experience at Tuskegee University’s Fall Open House! Exploring a college campus and imagining what comes next is why these trips matter. Sometimes, one experience is enough to help a young person see new possibilities.

Thank you to our families, chaperones, and supporters for helping make this day possible! ❤️💛💜
