How amazing are the ladies of Womenade, a group of women who wish to enrich the lives of the kids at Daniel! 💙📚

Known for making the holidays brighter for the children we serve, they are now keeping the fun going all summer long with an 8-week Book Club for our residential youth. This summer, the group is reading The BFG, and our kids are loving it!

Each week, these dedicated volunteers lead discussions, encourage participation, and even bring snacks—which are always a hit. We are so grateful for their commitment to staying engaged with our youth year-round and for providing a fun, educational activity during the summer months. Thank you 🙏

💙🧩A huge thank you to River City Science Academy for raising funds during Autism Awareness Month and choosing Daniel as the recipient of their generosity!

Thanks to their donation, our residential campus received much-needed sensory items that will be used by our talented therapists to support some of our most vulnerable youth. For many children with autism, sensory-based interventions can be an important part of their therapeutic journey and help them engage, regulate, and grow in ways traditional talk therapy alone may not.

We are so grateful to River City Science Academy for thinking of Daniel and helping us provide the tools our kids need to thrive!

Please join us in celebrating two outstanding members of the Daniel team! 👏

📣First, congratulations to AnaMarie Houston, our Manager of the Quarter! As a CMO FAST Supervisor, AnaMarie consistently demonstrates exceptional leadership, dedication, and commitment to the children and families we serve.

📣We also want to recognize Sa'Mona Mitchell, our May Employee of the Month! As a SIPP Admissions Coordinator, Sa'Mona's hard work, compassion, and attention to detail help make a difference every day.

At Daniel, we are fortunate to have team members like AnaMarie and Sa'Mona who bring their passion and dedication to work each day. Thank you both for all you do to support our mission and the youth and families we serve! 🌟

We had to join in the thanks! Some of the kids we serve got to go to camp this week, see below. We are thankful 🙏

When a community comes together, amazing things happen.

This week, three organizations united around one shared mission: helping children thrive.

Thanks to the generosity of Terrell Hogan Law, several children from Daniel Kids were able to experience a week of adventure, friendship, learning, and fun at Happy Acres Ranch.

Three organizations. One purpose. Countless memories.

Because every child deserves the opportunity to laugh, explore, build confidence, and simply enjoy being a kid.

Thank you, Terrell Hogan Law for investing in local children and helping create experiences that will last a lifetime. And thank you to DanielKids for the incredible work you do every day to support youth and families in our community.

Together, we're creating brighter futures - one child at a time. ☀️🐴💚

💚A BIG thank you to the team at Brooks Building Solutions for spending the day volunteering at our residential campus!

Brooks Building Solutions has been an amazing supporter of Daniel for years, including sponsoring our annual golf tournament, so it was especially meaningful to have their team come out, roll up their sleeves, and get their hands dirty.

We love seeing our donors engage with all aspects of Daniel and experience firsthand the impact they help make possible. Thank you to this hardworking crew for your time, energy, and continued support of the children and families we serve!

⚾Thank you to EverBank for inviting Daniel to be part of Community Impact Night with the Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp ! 🍤

🌭Our staff and some of the youth and families we serve enjoyed a wonderful evening at the ballpark alongside the EverBank team. We are honored to be recognized for the work Daniel does in the community and grateful for partners who share our commitment to helping Jacksonville's children and families thrive.

It truly takes a village, and we loved spending the evening meeting new friends, celebrating community impact, and enjoying some great baseball! 💚
