November 2020 Newsletter

This November, we are grateful for YOU in our community.

It has been a stressful and scary time in our collective history with the escalating Coronavirus pandemic, the grip of systemic racial injustice, and a tumultuous political transition. Global Potential chooses to stand together with the victims of violence, marginalization, and oppression. 

We want you to know how much we care about you and the role you play in making our community a supportive, inspiring, and inclusive space. 

We hope you have taken time for self-care and connection, as you honor the importance of your needs and recognize the truth that you are not alone!

Below, you'll find some important announcements and updates that we are excited to share with you.

Throughout this season of giving, we would love you to consider supporting GP programming for youth. 100% of the funding goes directly to empower the youth we serve.

We know not everyone is in the position to give financially, and we value participation through spreading the word! If you feel comfortable, please share our fundraising efforts with your social media and personal communities.
