On our Annual Meeting on Wednesday, June 10, we were able to extend our heartfelt appreciation to the Bortnick family, whose generosity made the Debby and Gary Bortnick Family Courtyard a reality.

For the dedication, our CEO, Josh Bender and families planted tomatoes and flowers in our new planter boxes. We are so excited to share this inclusive and accessible outdoor space with our community this summer during camp and many more occasions to come.🪴
