April is National Volunteer Month! It is a time to celebrate the incredible individuals who give their time, energy, and heart to make our communities stronger 💙

We’re especially proud to recognize several United Way for Southeastern Michigan 2026 Volunteer Honor Roll honorees from Center for Success Network: Taylor Hammond, Kandi Johnson, Michael Lamping, Emiley Pegley, Riley Wegryn-Jones, and Ingrid White. Their weekly commitment to supporting students and building literacy skills is creating lasting impact in our community.

Did you know? Volunteering doesn’t just benefit others, it benefits you too. Research shows that volunteering can help reduce stress, improve mental and physical health, and strengthen community connections.

At CFSN, we see this every day when caring adults show up, students thrive, confidence grows, and futures expand.

If you’ve been thinking about getting involved, now is the perfect time. Join us in making a difference one student, one session, one story at a time.

As National Mentoring Month comes to a close, the need for mentors does not.
Right now, young people in our community are still waiting for someone to show up, sit beside them, and say: “I believe in you.”

Literacy is more than reading words on a page — it’s access, confidence, and power. When you become a literacy mentor, you help rewrite what’s possible for a child and for our community.

If you’ve felt the pull this month, this is your moment.
📚 Stand for equity.
✊ Lead with purpose.
💛 Be the mentor a young person will thank for a lifetime.

Join Center for Success Network and carry the momentum forward.
