Watching our high school participants share their creations at our 9th Annual showcase was inspiring. Every seat in the room was filled. We spent the evening listening to stories, examining art, and interacting with games developed by our participants. It was a treat to experience the world through their eyes and learn about their hopes for the future.

There were so many impactful moments this summer, and none of them would have been possible without supporters like you. I’m thankful for everyone who has invested in our teens. Everyone from our staff to our dedicated BFFs played a vital role in making this an unforgettable and enriching five weeks.
