An Achievable Dream – March 2023
With the support of Brooks Running, we donated more than 40 pairs of shoes to An Achievable Dream – a nationally recognized K-12 program. The program is committed to the belief that all children can succeed and learn, regardless of their socioeconomic background. An Achievable Dream fulfills this through their commitment to provide social, academic, and moral education. An Achievable Dream operates six schools within the Peninsula and Southside, and we are thrilled to continue our partnership with them.
