Hello June!

A new month is here and it is a fresh reminder to move through life with kindness toward yourself and others. Small steps matter, rest is important, and healing takes time.

Be gentle with yourself this month. You deserve peace, growth, and moments of joy along the way. 💜

Earlier this month, the girls at Girls Inc. Santa Barbara ran their own farmers' market.
They learned how to set up a stand, talk to customers, and move produce. They learned what it feels like to be the ones doing the giving.
Veggie Rescue was proud to donate the produce that made it happen — fresh food that fed the community and gave a group of young women something to be proud of.
This is what food rescue looks like when it grows in every direction.

Receiving the 2026 California Nonprofit of the Year award in Sacramento was an unforgettable honor.

But this photo tells the deeper story.

CRR’s Senior Leadership Team represents nearly 90 years of combined service at CRR.

90 years of believing in our mission.
90 years of believing in children and families.
90 years of believing in the people we serve.
90 years of believing that strong communities change lives.

This recognition belongs to every team member, board member, volunteer, partner, and supporter who has helped make this impact possible.

The award may have our organization’s name on it, but it reflects the hearts, dedication, and commitment of the people behind the mission.

Thank you for believing in the work. ❤️

Fewer than 10% of childcare programs in the country earn accreditation from NAEYC — the National Association for the Education of Young Children. Their standards go far beyond the classroom, covering curriculum, teacher qualifications, family partnerships, and a formal code of ethics for every decision made in a child's interest. 💛

St. Vincent's holds it across three program areas. Not because the state requires it. Because we believe the first five years of a child's life are the foundation for everything — for that child, their family, and the community we all share.
