We’re excited to invite our community to Speak Your Truth, a fundraiser hosted by Punx with Purpose and iSpeak Lab on June 13 from 3:00 PM to 5:00 PM at the Reed Opera House Theater.

Over the past 8 weeks, Earl Fields has led an incredible public speaking course that has helped young people build confidence, reclaim their voices, and share their lived experiences through storytelling. This event is a celebration of their courage, growth, and resilience, and we would love for you to be part of it.

This fundraiser will help support summer activities and enrichment opportunities for youth, provide speaker stipends for the young people who have put so much into this program, and continue mentorship, leadership, and empowerment programming through Punx with Purpose.

Every ticket purchased is an investment in a young person finding their voice and realizing their potential. Join us for an afternoon of powerful stories, connection, and purpose.

Early bird ticket pricing is available through May 23.
Get your tickets here:

Please share with your friends, family, and community. Thank you for helping us continue to support and empower local youth.

Mental Health Awareness Month is a reminder that a lot of young people are carrying heavy things that are not always visible. Anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, and isolation affect more youth than many people realize, and too often they feel like they have to handle it alone.

At Punx with Purpose, we want youth to know there is support and there is a place for them. Through PWP and Stormie’s Place, we work to create a safe and welcoming space where young people can be listened to, supported, and met exactly where they are. We also know that care can look different from day to day, which is why we offer a hot meal, snack bags, a game room, clothing closet, and food pantry.

If you or a youth you know needs immediate help, this resource includes hotlines and other support options: https://www.teens4teenshelp.org/hotlines

Sometimes the first step is simply knowing there is somewhere safe to turn. Support, compassion, and connection can make a real difference.

May is Mental Health Awareness Month, and it is an important reminder that our youth are carrying more than a lot of people realize. Anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, and feeling alone are very real, and no young person should feel like they have to face those things by themselves.

At Punx with Purpose, we want youth to know they are not alone. PWP and Stormie’s Place are here as a safe place where we listen, meet youth where they are, and provide support without judgment. At Stormie’s Place, youth can get a hot meal, snack bags, access to our game room, clothing closet, and food pantry.

If you or a young person you know needs support, here is a helpful resource with hotlines and support options: https://www.teens4teenshelp.org/hotlines

You can also reach out to Punx with Purpose and request services here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdvo4ZW2C7GqjfSi0PAZvfHLxVBxir7Bei4CG_Xol7UkpMZwg/viewform

Please remind the youth in your life that asking for help is okay. Sometimes just knowing there is a safe place to go can make all the difference.
