🌍💚 Earth Day at Springs Preserve — 4/18/26 💚🌍
Our Out of School Program students had the BEST time celebrating Earth Day at ☀️🌵
From exploring the trails and learning about our desert ecosystem, to hitting the vendor booths and shutting down the photo booth, these kids came ready to have fun AND learn something. 📋✨
This is what it’s all about getting our youth outside, connected to their community, and invested in the world around them. We’re so proud of every single one of them.
Shoutout to and for making it an incredible experience for our young leaders! 🤝

🏆✊🏾 The 17th Annual C.J. Watson Black History Student Recognition Luncheon was nothing short of AMAZING!
From the moment the Gibson Step Team hit the floor, the energy in the room was electric ⚡️ they set the tone and had everybody locked in from the jump.
Our MC Tiffany Washington kept the crowd engaged and the vibe going all afternoon 🎤. Pastor Trint Holmes delivered a powerful word that inspired every single person in that room, students and adults alike 🙏🏾.
But the real stars of the day? The STUDENTS!🌟 Watching these young people step to that podium and recite their essays with passion, confidence, and purpose reminded all of us exactly why we do this. These kids are extraordinary, and we are so proud of each and every one of them.
To every school administrator, business representative, community member, and supporter who came out THANK YOU. Your presence means everything to these young scholars and to the mission of the Quiet Storm Foundation.
17 years and the movement only gets stronger. 💪🏾🌪️

🙏🏾 Big shoutout and sincere thank you to Assembly Member Elaine Marzola for sponsoring the C.J. Watson 17th Annual Black History Student Recognition Luncheon! 🖤✊🏾
It means everything when our elected leaders show up for our students and our community. Assembly Member Marzola has consistently fought for education and opportunity for all Nevadans, and her support of this year’s essay contest is a true reflection of those values in action.
To the four student essay winners being honored — know that your community sees you, celebrates you, and is investing in your future. 🎓
Thank you, for standing with the Quiet Storm Foundation and helping us acknowledge the next generation of leaders. This is what community looks like. 💙
