Three weeks later, and we are still feeling the impact of this year’s Safer Sacks fundraiser. 💙🥪

The support shown by our community, sponsors, volunteers, partners, and lunch purchasers was incredible, and we continue to reflect on what it means to have so many people believe in second chances.

Because of your support, we can continue providing education, workforce development, reentry support, mentoring, and life-changing opportunities for youth and adults working toward a better future for themselves and their families.

To our sponsors: THANK YOU for standing beside our mission and investing in hope, opportunity, and community impact. Your support helped make our 21st Annual Safer Sacks fundraiser one of celebration, connection, and purpose during Second Chance Month and our 50th year serving the Quad Cities.

We are beyond grateful and still smiling about what we accomplished together. Thank you for helping us remind our community that people are more than their worst mistake and that providing space for the next opportunity matters. 💙

We are incredibly grateful to the Rock Island Kiwanis Club for their generous funding award in support of our Safer Sacks Fundraiser.

Because of partners like Kiwanis, we are able to continue investing in youth and adults who are working hard to build a better future for themselves. Your support helps create real opportunities for education, employment, and long-term stability.

Thank you for believing in second chances and in the power of community to change lives.
