Last week, we had the pleasure of dropping off school supply donations at College Park Elementary School, part of VBSchools 📚 We joined them for their "Back to School Block Party", which featured backpack and school supply giveaways to prepare for the start of the new school year.

All donations were gathered by our friends at the Virginia Beach/Chesapeake locations of West Shore Home Virginia Beach! Each summer, their employees collect schools supplies to ensure all children have the tools they need to succeed in the classroom.

We're incredibly thankful they chose to support us in making sure that all children have the opportunity to THRIVE! ✨

Last week, we hosted our Community Leaders Luncheon, bringing together influential and philanthropic leaders in our community.

We recognized the impact of the community's generosity, leadership, and commitment that is made every day.

Thank you to our keynote speaker, Maurice Jones, who challenged us to think about what we value - and reminded us that how we lead, invest, and show up for our community should reflect those values.

We're excited to continue serving the South Hampton Roads community, and thank those who help make this meaningful work possible.

Last week, 28 organizations came together for the Mission United Community Convening - 30 individuals who brought their experience, expertise, resources, and a genuine commitment to our military-connected community ❤️

Participants identified challenges and made recommendations on how organizations could work together to solve them.

The key takeaway was how Mission United can make it easier for community members to get the support they need, when it's needed 💪

We look forward to continuing these difficult conversations through quarterly convenings!

We are stronger when we work together. Want to be a part of the conversation? Visit https://bit.ly/3UnqgsZ to get involved.
