October’s day of community service took us to Cradles to Crayons Philadelphia
Our job was the first line of defense for new clothes coming in. We sorted by type and by gender, and we set aside anything that didn’t meet their standard: Quality = Dignity. If a child wouldn’t be proud to wear it, it doesn’t go out the door.
Dylan Collie of KW Empower joined us. A friend of the shop and an absolute beast, growing year over year, month over month. He keeps redefining himself. Always willing to learn. Always wanting to grow.
And a last-second slot opened up this week, so we put a call out to our partners at Coldwell Banker Old City. Huge shout-out to AJ Simms, who raised a hand and showed up. We had never worked together before. Glad we got the chance, and in a way that actually mattered. It takes something to walk into a room of people you don’t know and still give the day to the community.
Very grateful.
