We’re wildly pleased with how successful our first-ever Wild About Learning back-to-school event went! 📚 🥳

It was an incredible day that brought together more than 740 attendees, 25 community partners/vendors, and Wilder programs for an afternoon filled with resources, food, fun, connection—and, of course, backpacks!🎒

From health screenings and haircuts to family activities, community resources, program connections, music, food, and school supplies, Wilder families experienced what is possible when we come together around the Whole Family. 🩺 ✂️ 🎶

Events like these demonstrate the power of working as One Wilder, where our staff work together with the goal of creating an incredible experience for families. 🌟
