Summer and September 2022 were a jamboree.
In alignment with the Foundation's annual organizational goal of Relationships, we have spent the "quiet" months of our year talking a lot...to so many business, schools, and support organization partners.
We encourage you to subscribe to BVEF News Feed if you would like to receive more in-depth and frequent updates. Newsletters will go out on the 1st of the month October-June this year. The BVEF News Feed will offer posts more frequently, approximately once per week for those that like to be "in the know."
Below is a bullet-point snapshot and photo gallery of the past couple months and our partnership work. With the BVEF staff, Danielle and Holly, back in September and our new staff colleagues, Ann and Lauren, getting their feet on the ground - you can expect more info going your way later this month. Keep your eyes on the lookout for those BVEF emails and be sure we are on your accepted sender lists!
