Our “Mother’s Day Reimagined” dinner was filled with Thai food, desserts, fun conversations, and space to reflect. Inspired by a student from last year who brought flowers, the Champions Program Committee gave each student a flower along with disappearing or regular paper to write something they wanted to let go of or hold onto.

For many in the Champions Program, caregiver relationships can be complicated, so moments like this are a reminder that healing can happen in community.

Thanks to everyone who came and made it such a meaningful evening!!

A lot of learning, a lot of laughing, and a lot of slime that definitely did not look right at first 😂 Huge thanks to the slime pros who helped rescue some very questionable creations. Whether you came to yap, craft, or enjoy the delicious pasta bar (with their famous breadsticks and salad of course), this quarterly Arts & Crafts Night 2026 was so fun. Thanks to everyone who came out and made it such a great night!
