A heartfelt thank you for the generous support received for our Father’s Day raffles during the Juneteenth Community Family Barbecue! Your contributions helped us honor and uplift the presence of fathers in our community, pushing back against the harmful narrative of absentee fatherhood.

We truly are a community thriving together!
