Thank you BB&T for the awesome summer Bash & BBQ! Hearts & Homes youth and staff had a great time! We are grateful for the goodies, clothes, games, and sports equipment you got for the children and teens and the programs! Our young mothers were especially grateful for the boxes of diapers and other baby items!

The food was great and each young person really enjoyed themselves. Some of our youth played horseshoe; two of our foster youth had never heard of the game until that day, and were still talking about it during the ride home!  Another one of our TFC youth was able to bring his sister who is not in our program – it made him feel good to be able to invite her and create memories for the both of them.

Many of the teen mothers from Damamli ILP were unable to attend the picnic due to their work schedules, however at their weekly group they received the gift donations. They excitedly tore through the box as they each selected items of their choice. They shared that the gifts were not only things that they liked but actually really needed.  They were very grateful and all left as happy campers!

 We are grateful for the support, encouragement, and accessibility BB&T consistently provides to our team, and they reflected the same passion, enthusiasm, and kindness with our youth. Thank you for the the fantastic food, the fun activities, and the BB&T staff members who made the BBQ a great celebration!
