Dear Friends,
As I reflect back on 2022, I saw our community come together to help young people thrive and grow into caring, capable and resilient young adults. Your acts of hope, strength, generosity, positivity, and kindness left me truly in awe and grateful for each and every one of you.
I want to express my gratitude for our staff for their tireless work and unwavering commitment to the children and families we serve. They are heroes to me. I am blessed to associate with each of them—a team who works hard and respects those around them. I am also thankful for our Board of Directors—a team that governs with heart, accountability, and vision.
I would especially like to thank our friends, neighbors, donors and community partners who made it possible for The Georgetown Project to positively impact thousands of children, youth and families in 2022. So many of you performed small acts of kindness on a daily basis that perhaps no one really saw, but your support showed kids you cared, and that is huge.
As this milestone 25th Anniversary year of The Georgetown Project comes to a close, we thank you for the opportunity to serve this community. We are excited about the year ahead! We plan to listen and learn from those we work for, and those we work with, to assess impact of our current programs and partnerships. As we look to the next 25 years, we will identify opportunities for scalability of some programs, while assuring we are poised to seize new opportunities to work toward our vision: A community where no child is hungry, hurt, alone or rejected and where all children and youth feel loved, respected and treated with dignity.
On behalf of our TGP Family, I wish you a very Merry Christmas and New Year full of peace, love, good health, and happiness.
With gratitude,
Leslie Janca
