Meet Jasmine — HEAF senior, future Social Worker, and newly awarded scholarship recipient! She’s heading to Binghamton University this fall, supported by the H&N Insurance & Financial Service Scholarship and the Canon Frederick Boyd Williams Scholarship.

Tonight at Toasting the Future, we’re celebrating students just like Jasmine — young people whose talent, drive, and leadership deserve every opportunity.

Last week’s visit to Alliance Bernstein was a milestone moment for our Industry Immersion students!

As part of their “You’re Hired” Capstone, students shared their Career Portfolios, resumes, synergy maps, and 60‑second pitches — all while fielding questions from three AB volunteers who served as our hiring managers. Their feedback, encouragement, and real‑world insight made the experience unforgettable.

Huge congratulations to our three top presenters, and a big thank‑you to AllianceBernstein for welcoming our students and supporting their growth.

Proud of this group and all the work they put in.

What a beautiful day we shared this past Saturday at the 3rd Annual Harlem Community Wellness Field Day! 🌿😊✨

Thank you for showing up, showing love, and celebrating with us.

From field games and basketball to music, dancing, healing spaces, creative expression, and hands‑on workshops, the day was filled with joy, connection, and community. We loved seeing you create bliss bowls, build bouquets, make art, move your bodies, and take time to recharge.

We hope you left with new connections, a sense of renewal, and a few resources to support your wellness journey. 🩷
