Testimonial

"I am a teacher in the Upper Darby School District and feel a special connection to the children and families of Stonehurst and Bywood. I know and admire many of the staff that make your programs unique. My husband, Jake, and I wanted to support an organization that we felt strongly about. After Jake heard me talking so highly about the Community Outreach programs, he also wanted to contribute to them. This is in appreciation for all you do! "

Carol and Jake Peterson.

Thank you to all our generous donors! Without your support, we would not be able to reach as many young people as we do!
