The Little Forest: A Place Where Every Story and Every Person Matters
March to June 2024
We are abuzz with excitement as we undertake a heartfelt mission to promote literacy and the inclusion of everyone, including the neurodivergent community. Our efforts have led to the collection of an impressive 1500 children's books, each one a gateway to a world of imagination and learning. Special thanks to Yorba Linda Public Library, Anaheim Public Library, Ambassador Church, and our members for your donations! With unwavering dedication, we are creating a vibrant and welcoming space at Yorba Linda High School, where these books will find a new home. This space will not only be a library but a sanctuary where all students, regardless of their intellectual challenges, can feel included and inspired. As we gather these literary treasures, we are reminded of the power of stories to unite us. Every book collected is a step towards building a more inclusive community, where every individual's unique story is celebrated and cherished.

Hoops & Hope: Empowering Families
Through Basketball
June 2024
In the heart of Anaheim, we are teaming up with Ambassador Church to bring joy, skills, and nourishment to families in need through our Upwards Basketball summer program. It's more than just a game; it's a beacon of hope, unity, and empowerment. With a shared vision of lifting our community, we're hitting the courts to teach basketball skills to children and families who might not have had access to such opportunities before. Through the guidance of dedicated coaches and mentors, every dribble, pass, and shot becomes a lesson in teamwork, resilience, and self-confidence. But our mission doesn't stop there. As the sun sets and the hunger sets in, we gather together to provide freshly cooked meals to nourish both body and soul, ensuring that no one in our community goes hungry. In the swish of a ball and the sizzle of a meal, we're fostering a sense of belonging and possibility. Together, we're creating memories, building relationships, and sowing seeds of hope that will continue to grow long after the final buzzer sounds. Let's shoot for the stars and score big on and off the court!
