Wednesday · Program visit to CreeSiendo Paz

It is so obvious that people love it here. Children want to be here. Parents come early, hang around longer than needed, and greet the leaders with a smile. They all care. This means something to them. It's hard to believe they can run this program so well with such limited physical space.

Thursday

I am blown away by the work of Laura and Nicole, who lead CreeSiendo Paz. I believe wholeheartedly in their vision and want to do whatever I can to help it grow.

Saturday · Walking the neighborhood, dreaming with the CreeSiendo Paz team

How can we improve their access to a safe and usable physical space for programming? If they are already doing so much with so little, imagine what kind of improvements and scaling could happen with more space? The team talks about renting somewhere new, but what if we purchased a house for CreeSiendo Paz? And then they could rent a portion of it to a business for some revenue? What if they ran their own social enterprise business out of the bottom floor?
