CARVER VOICES - SEPTEMBER

KICKING OFF OUR FALL PROGRAMMING

TEEN CENTER


The doors of our Teen Center are officially open, and the energy is buzzing!


Already, 111 teens have joined as members, diving headfirst into an array of dynamic activities—from academic support and personalized career coaching to career readiness and life skills workshops. They’re receiving guidance on college essays and applications, and hands-on assistance with securing scholarships.


But that’s not all—our teens are also getting active with sports, and making a difference in our community through volunteer opportunities, like the upcoming Midnight Run! 

 

AQUATICS


Over 100 children are making waves and building confidence in our Group Swim Lessons!


Meanwhile, our Carver Titans Swim Team is off to a strong start with 20 young athletes sharpening their skills and gearing up for their very first swim meet.


We’re also thrilled to welcome families for Saturday Family Swim, and our Lap Swim is in full swing four days a week—Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday.


The Carver pool is alive with energy, and our community is diving in!

 
 

CARVER MARKET


In August alone, we distributed an incredible 74,000 pounds of food to families.


Our newly redesigned Carver Market is now more efficient and welcoming than ever, creating a seamless, client-friendly shopping experience that makes access to essentials easier for everyone.


And the excitement doesn’t stop there—on Saturday, October 5th, Carver Market, in partnership with Food Web, will host its first Farmer’s Market of the year, bringing our community a vibrant selection of fresh fruits and nourishing vegetables. It’s a celebration of health, wellness, and community!

 

ADULT & FAMILY SERVICES


Our programs for Adults are off to a great start! English Language Learning Classes are full of energy as 35 community members take steps to master conversational English and connect more deeply with the community around them!


Meanwhile, Carver Center’s Citizenship Classes are currently empowering 24 aspiring citizens with the knowledge and skills they need to navigate the path toward becoming proud U.S. citizens.


Our Case Management Services have made a life-changing difference for over 200 individuals this past year, providing critical support, and resource.


Carver Center is transforming lives and building a stronger community, one step at a time!
