This past Sunday, our beloved Hoolie celebrated another trip around the sun. It’s impossible to measure the number of lives she has touched over the decades with her full heart, authentic care, wisdom of the soul, and hysterically shameless humor. Tony and Hoolie built this place, and for those of us that get to work here, it’s a uniquely warm feeling to be a part of something founded on such pure love. When a young person needs a healing hug, Hoolie is there. When bravery must be embraced to model strength through struggle, Hoolie has open arms. When the warmest of words are needed to acknowledge others, we call upon Hoolie – so much so, that we struggled to write this post without her! Thank you for all that you are to us, Hoolie, and to so many others... Happy birthday! #YMC #happybirthday #youthmentoring #youthmentoringconnection
