October 9, 2026—We officially broke ground on our brand-new, state-of-the-art Community Center & Headquarters, marking an exciting new chapter for Memphis and the Mid-South.

Having our community alongside us made this milestone even more meaningful. We heard powerful stories from funders, community partners, participants, and staff, reminding us of the brighter future we’re building together.

We also left our mark by signing beams that will become part of our new home, carrying the love, hope, and legacy of our community for generations to come.

Thank you for lifting us up and helping us create a place we all can call home.
