A big thank you to our longtime partners at Grandeur Peak Global Advisors!

Last Friday, we visited their office to share updates on our work over the past year and spend time with their team on a special volunteer project.

Volunteers helped create visual daily routine charts for children receiving mental health services at The Children's Center Utah. These charts are valuable tools for families, helping children establish healthy routines, build early literacy skills, and feel more prepared for the transitions throughout their day.

We're incredibly grateful for Grandeur Peak's continued generosity and commitment to the children and families we serve. Their support helps make our work possible, and it's always a pleasure to connect with their team in such a meaningful way!

A couple of weeks ago, we welcomed students from The University of Utah Bennion Center for their annual Legacy of Lowell Saturday Service Project.

Together, they created personal piñatas for each child in our Therapeutic Preschool Program, in honor of Hispanic Heritage Month. Each one is filled with scented Play-Doh, a themed coloring and activity book, crayons, fruit leather bars, and helpful fidget toys.

We’re so grateful for the Bennion Center’s continued partnership and for each student who shared part of their Saturday with us to create something fun and meaningful for the kids in our program. Thank you! 🧡
