Last week I learned two things. First I learned that there is event space available at The Moakley Courthouse in Boston.
Second, I was introduced to another organization in the Boston area that is doing some spectacular work for the youth in the Greater Boston Area.
Here’s a snippet from their website :
“Breakthrough Greater Boston (BTGB) is a year-round, tuition-free academic program that serves middle and high school students in greater Boston.”
Their event brought in lots of supporters and they were treated to a colorful ambiance.
There were fantastic prizes in the raffle as well as some wonderful big ticket, live auction items.
Around every corner I found guests conversing and socializing….. and just having a good ‘ol time.
The students and teachers also had a couple of stations to show people some of the ideas they have been learning about!
They all did such a great job!
Some delicious food was served and it was almost time to start the program.
Last minute discussion among a couple of the speakers…
… and then it was time for the program to begin…
The teachers and students got the crowd involved and energized immediately!
Elissa, Executive Director, had many thanks and praise to announce to the audience.
And the audience’s participation was phenomenal.
The testimonials from current and former students were moving.
And based on Kayla and Kevin’s stories at the podium, it is clear how much Breakthrough is making positive changes in young people’s lives.
As the night wrapped up and people grabbed a sweet and a souvenir… I reflected on how it was a great honor to meet so many wonderful people at Springfest 2013. Breakthrough is an organization truly worth knowing about and worth saluting for all of their accomplishments thus far.
Kuddos to you Breakthrough! You put together an amazing event!
