Over the past two weeks, Wellspring had the pleasure of hosting Jack, a graduating high school senior who is pursuing a public service career path.

When asked to describe his experience with Wellspring in one word, Jack chose: **Powerful.**

Throughout his time with us, Jack attended ESOL classes, connected with staff, helped in the gardens, and joined us at our recent HOST/MediClerk graduation ceremony.

"What inspired me most during my time here was attending the HOST/MediClerk graduation," he shared. "It was inspiring to see how proud and accomplished all the graduates and their families felt after completing the program. I could see how much hard work, dedication, and sacrifice went into reaching that moment."

Reflecting on Wellspring's mission, Jack said, "The mission is truly about empowering people and putting them on a path toward immediate and future success."

Thank you, Jack, for spending part of your senior year with us. We are grateful for your curiosity, thoughtful perspective, and willingness to learn alongside our community. We wish you all the best in the exciting journey ahead!

Yesterday, Wellspring celebrated 31 adults who completed our Healthcare Office Support Training (HOST) program, with every enrolled student in this graduating class earning their diploma — a 100% graduation rate!

Their hard work, determination, and resilience are inspiring, and their success is a reminder of what can happen when training, opportunity, and sustained support come together.

Congratulations to all of the graduates. We can’t wait to see what comes next.

Behind every number is a person building a brighter future for themselves and their family. As we celebrate this milestone, we’re grateful for the community that helps make stories like these possible.

Help us continue creating opportunities like this across the North Shore.

We’re grateful to the Gloucester Daily Times for highlighting Wellspring’s FY2025 Annual Impact Report and the growing need for stable housing, education, job training, and career support across the North Shore!

This year’s report reflects a period of continued growth and deepening impact — from expanded homelessness prevention services to record outcomes in workforce training and education programs.

Behind every number is a person, a family, and a future still being built. Individuals and families are working hard and Wellspring is right there with them, providing services that create lasting progress. Please give to Wellspring's Spring Appeal before our fiscal year-end deadline, June 30, and help us finish strong.

We’re grateful to see Wellspring and Brookwood School’s longstanding partnership featured in both Mass Nonprofit News and Patch. ✨

On May 13, Wellspring dedicated a vibrant new bench on our Gloucester campus celebrating more than 30 years of partnership with .

Inspired by artwork created by Brookwood students, the handcrafted bench overlooks the wildflower gardens generations of students have helped cultivate over the years — a lasting reflection of community, belonging, and shared care.

The dedication also honored Brookwood educators Sarah Dawe, Pam Hawes, and Jeff Wilfahrt, whose leadership helped shape one of the North Shore’s longest-running community partnerships.

Thank you to Mass Nonprofit News and Patch for helping share the story behind this meaningful collaboration and the community that continues to grow around it.
