We’ve had a lot going on behind the scenes in 2025:
▪️Exterior work (landscaping, roofing, flashing, and the long awaited graffiti wall repairs)
▪️Interior updates (back of building for better hosting community gatherings, including the start of our kitchen)
▪️Full commercial kitchen purchased.
▪️Youth service days with scholarship money.
▪️Storage space given to serveral local organizations.
▪️Host site for weekly gatherings (including the aforementioned “Hangout”)
▪️Venue space for multiple events for friends and family (great test runs for opening up more to the community)
▪️Community Garden (third year)
While we still aren’t where we hope to be in reaching our community, we are well acquainted with humble beginnings and are excited at the ways we have grown this year in both reaching our community and in the clearer vision and partnerships needed for next steps.
Thank you to everyone that has given time, talent, and resources to helping us get where we are today. This is all for the community but we can’t do it without the community coming together. And a special thanks to whoever has been doing snow removal for us - it’s truly been such an unexpected blessing. ☺️
We look forward to seeing what 2026 has in store!
