Dear FCN Team,

I am excited to share the latest edition of Happy Highlights, where we reflect on the remarkable stories and accomplishments that closed out 2024 and set the tone for a bright year ahead.

In this edition, you’ll find inspiring updates from the Hurricane Milton Relief Drive, where collaborative efforts made an incredible impact on families in need, and a special spotlight on the Rev Max Team, whose hard work has driven innovation and excellence in eligibility processes.

We also honor the legacy of Annabel "Bunchy" Gertner through the Bunchy Memorial and Toy Drive Kickoff, celebrate transformative moments during National Adoption Day, and look back on the success of the Out of Foster Hope Under the Stars Gala. These stories, alongside many others, highlight the dedication and teamwork that define everything we do.

I hope you enjoy reading this edition as much as we enjoyed putting it together. Let’s carry this energy into 2025 and continue making a difference in the lives of the children and families we serve.

Thank you for being part of this journey!

Esther
