A Heartfelt Thank You to Men Giving Back

Our hearts are overflowing with joy and gratitude! We are absolutely thrilled to announce that Speak Up for Kids (SUFK) has been honored with a $100,000 grant from the Men Giving Back Grant Awards. This incredible recognition is a powerful affirmation of our mission and a significant boost to our work.

Being chosen as one of just 12 finalists from a field of inspiring and dedicated non-profits was an honor in itself. We stand proudly alongside these incredible organizations, each working tirelessly to make a positive impact. To then be selected as a grant recipient is a moment of profound gratitude that words can hardly express.

We extend our deepest thanks to the members and supporters of Men Giving Back. Your belief in our cause and your commitment to community empowerment are what make moments like this possible. This grant is not just funding; it is a partnership that will directly amplify our efforts and help us reach more children in need.

Our dedicated team members, Coleen LaCosta and Barbara Scarlatta, had the immense pleasure of accepting this generous award on behalf of the entire SUFK family. Their presence represented the passion and hard work of every volunteer, supporter, and team member who contributes to our mission every single day.

This $100,000 grant will be instrumental in advancing our core mission: to help and empower children in foster care. It will allow us to expand our programs, provide essential resources, and create more opportunities for these deserving children to thrive.

Thank you for believing in us. Thank you for helping us transform lives. Together, we are building a brighter future.
