We did it! Thanks to you, we met our goal. OVER 1,000 of our kids and families will get a gift card for something special this holiday season! And, with the help of our entire Graham Community, we are finding lots of new ways to make the holidays joyful this year!
Every December, our Cornerstone Community Center holds a holiday celebration with performances, refreshments, and festivities for the families of Manhattanville, Harlem. This year, the community can't gather in the same way, but our staff have been working hard to make sure that the holidays are still festive. Decorations are up at the Cornerstone and kids in the afterschool dance classes have been rehearsing their performances to share with their families via video.
We are deeply grateful for all that our community has done this year to make sure that our kids and families stay safe and have what they need to persevere through the challenges of this pandemic. From all of us at Graham, we wish you Happy Holidays and hope that, like our kids at the Cornerstone, you are finding new, meaningful ways to "dance" through this December.
With thanks and warmest wishes,
Jess Dannhauser
