Fall Cookout

As the leaves began to change and the crisp autumn air rolled in, our community came together for an unforgettable day of food, fun, and purpose. In September, we hosted our official launch and community cookout, a heartwarming celebration that brought neighbors, friends, and supporters together in the spirit of unity and compassion.

The event was more than just a gathering; it was a powerful testament to the impact of collective generosity. Through ticket sales and donations, we raised an incredible $12,437! This outpouring of support allowed us to directly support refugees by providing essential resources and educational opportunities.

Guests were treated to a day filled with delicious food, laughter, and connection. The scent of fresh-off-the-grill favorites filled the air as music and the sounds of children’s laughter echoed throughout the space. From engaging conversations to playful activities, every moment reflected the power of community in action.

This cookout wasn’t just about raising funds—it was about building relationships and strengthening our shared mission. Seeing familiar faces and meeting new supporters reminded us why this work matters. Each person’s presence contributed to a larger purpose, one that will continue to impact the lives of refugees seeking safety, stability, and hope.

Looking back, we’re filled with gratitude for everyone who attended, donated, and supported in any capacity. Your generosity fuels our mission and keeps us moving forward. This cookout was a beautiful reminder that when a community comes together, anything is possible.

Thank you to everyone who made September 22, 2024, a day to remember. The impact of your kindness will be felt far beyond the cookout itself, as we continue working to support the well-being and future of refugee families. We’re already looking forward to our next opportunity to collaborate and take action together.
