Why We're Gathering

Every day, nonprofit professionals, social workers, advocates, educators, healthcare workers, and community leaders care for others and help carry our community through its greatest challenges. This event is a chance to celebrate the people who spend their lives making a difference.

As many in our community are also carrying heavy hearts right now, we are especially grateful for opportunities to gather, support one another, and make space for both joy and healing. We hope this morning offers a chance to connect with colleagues, reflect, and be reminded that you are not alone. 

What to Expect

There is no formal program—just an opportunity to enjoy breakfast, music, games, art, reflection, and simple moments of joy and connection before heading to work. Come and go as your schedule allows while experiencing the Park as a space for inspiration, dialogue, healing, and community.

Families are welcome! If bringing your child makes it easier to join us, we'd love to have them. The Park features a playground where kids can play while you enjoy the morning.
