It\u2019s more than food \u2014 it\u2019s a safe place for youth to connect. I\u2019m still exploring ways to be more present inside the schools, but this program has been a great bridge for now.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Discord Community<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Our online community continues to grow. Youth need safe digital spaces, and Discord gives us the ability to connect, chat, and support them even when we\u2019re not face-to-face.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Media Initiatives \u2013\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>WANDER\/\/ERS<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We\u2019re launching a new WANDER\/\/ERS initiative in early October, diving into current youth topics that matter \u2014 from screen time to identity to belonging. This project will give youth a voice, and help us meet them where they already are: online.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Thank You<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Every lunch served, every mentoring conversation, every video created is possible because of your prayers and support.
