On November 25 we held Bounce into Winter, a fantastic FREE event for the community! The bounce house-filled Edge Arena made the perfect setting for a day of fun for almost 500 people to kick off the season with some family fun for a good cause! We partnered with Tides of Grace to support their toy drive efforts to benefit those in need in our community this holiday season.
We had our first leadership meeting at Stevensville Middle School this month! Students were able to learn more about themselves, engage in the wheel of life survey, and set obtainable goals for their immediate and longer term futures. The best part of the meeting was bringing seniors from Kent Island High School Leadership Cohort to encourage their younger peers in this journey.
The Charity Clay Shoot was a great success! Approximately 50 participants came out to support the foundation, have a fun day of shooting, and enjoy food and spirits! We thank everyone who supported this event and participated. We can't wait for next year's event and hope you will join us!
The foundation had the opportunity to work with Mrs. Wilbert's Pre-K class at Kent Island Elementary School this month. Together we collected food to donate to Haven Ministries. We were able to donate several boxes on their behalf. So proud of our little community helpers for coming up with this idea and helping our community to be a better place!
Kent Island High School Seniors delivered handmade bracelets with encouraging messages on them to Kent Island Elementary School students. It was truly heartwarming to see the First grader's eyes light up as the "big kids" gave them their small gestures of care.
In the spirit of this Giving Tuesday, Giving The Edge Foundation awarded 2 $500 scholarships to high school students in Queen Anne’s County. We asked students to write about how they ”Win The Day” in their community. Join us in congratulating Campbell Riggs and Myiah Barnard our essay winners!
Thank you to Cult Classic Brewing for "pouring into" our foundation during the Backyard Brews with Benefits event. We were able to spread awareness about our foundation and meet some great friends along the way. Cult Classic donated their proceeds to the foundation and we are so grateful!
