✨ Yesterday during Fun Club, we had the absolute joy of honoring our superstar volunteer, Connor B., with the Kara Murphy Award! ✨![]()
Connor has been showing up for Welcome Home since 2023, bringing heart, humor, and dedication to nearly every Monday at Fun Club. He’s also a key part of our 3D Committee—Delivery, Drives, Donations—where his reliability and commitment truly shine.![]()
We’re so grateful for Connor and for all of our incredible volunteers who make this community what it is. 💛 Thank you!!
Our Eid celebration potluck was an amazing success! A huge thank you to all the volunteers who contributed a dish, helped with setup, and stayed to clean up. This event wouldn’t have been possible without our wonderful Welcome Home community ❤️ ![]()
A specific shoutout to @saintpetersprep for bringing in awesome student volunteers who also donated a whole bunch of socks. THANK YOU!!
