The 8th annual Healthy Kids, Healthy Futures breakfast was forced to go virtual this year along with so many other typically in-person gatherings but still drove a lot of donations and community support as well as providing inspiring stories of the amazing work done by Looking Glass staff and volunteers.

Held via Zoom and hosted by Emcees Liz Kelly & Mary Reilly of Mix 94.5FM, this year’s event featured a highlight video from all Looking Glass programs explaining how they’ve adapted and managed during the various challenges encountered in a turbulent 2020.

The event also featured an inspiring success story by a former homeless youth client, Cameron, who now owns his own home and has steady work in the construction industry.

This year’s fundraiser was sponsored by Hamilton Construction, with additional supporting sponsorship from Besemann/Valentine and Hyland Construction. Board of Directors Chair Dan LaCoste implored supporters to donate regularly and see the impact their giving can have on our community’s most vulnerable youth.
