Congratulations to the recipients of two $25,000 Foundation grants!

Congratulations to the Stuart-Hobson Middle School Drama Players for their selection as a Top All-Festival MainStage Performing Group at the Junior Theater Festival in Atlanta, a competition among 141 theater groups from across the country. The Foundation is bursting with pride and gratified that we could help fund the group's participation. As Drama Players Director Tori Pergerson exclaimed, "What made this journey especially meaningful was witnessing who our students became along the way—supporting one another backstage, encouraging peers from other schools, standing taller with each performance, and returning home changed. They did not just compete; they represented Capitol Hill with pride, integrity, and excellence." See for yourself in the video of their adjudication performance.

Enjoy the videos and music you love, upload original content, and share it all with friends, family, and the world on YouTube.
