Sunshine, sports, and STEM—see how our children are soaking up every moment of summer.

In our June newsletter, discover how children on our campus are stepping into a season filled with new experiences, outdoor fun, and the simple joy of being kids.

This summer, they are taking part in camps, sports, creative arts, swimming, STEM activities, and special events made possible by community partners, volunteers, and neighbors.

Together, these experiences help children build confidence, form friendships, and feel a sense of belonging during an important season of childhood.

Kicking off summer with a goal-worthy day!

A big thank-you to Ancient City Soccer Club coaches Tony and Hugo for teaching our children the fundamentals of soccer. From ball control and turning to dribbling and playing in a scrimmage, the kids were all in.

At the end, the coaches celebrated their progress, shared a few extra pointers, and rewarded correct answers to the soccer quiz with McDonald’s gift cards.

Together, we can turn housing insecurity into lasting stability for local families. Learn more at https://homelesscoalitionstjohns.com.

Who knew the first week of summer could be this wild and wonderful?

Our campus kids had an incredible start to their first week off from school! Thanks to the generous support of our community, the children enjoyed a fun scavenger hunt filled with clues, to the tune of “Going on a Bear Hunt.” They swam like fish, hopped like frogs, and flew like birds at each clue stop. At every stop, the children received items to fill their summer survival bucket, including sunglasses, bubbles, crayons, and more.

A special thank you goes to the Sisterhood for Service of Bannon Lakes for purchasing the prizes and managing the clue stops. Students from the University of St. Augustine for Health Sciences also helped make the event enjoyable, and we appreciate the Tale Tellers for assisting with the clues, songs, and actions.

As the scavenger hunt concluded, the final clue led the children to the field for a special surprise: a bubble truck! The children and their families had a fantastic time.

We also want to thank Gather Church for sponsoring the bubble truck and contributing to our amazing summer kickoff.

Join us in creating brighter tomorrows for homeless families. To learn more about volunteer opportunities, how we help homeless families, and how you can contribute, please visit https://homelesscoalitionstjohns.com.

You could say that hope is setting in concrete.

In Debi’s end-of-week update, we celebrate a significant milestone: the pouring of sidewalks and office steps as Phase 1 progresses. This new space will enable us to better serve families by providing the resources and support they need to overcome homelessness.

Stand with us as we build—your support today helps us open more doors tomorrow.
