Any time there’s a grill going and line dancing in the streets, you know it’s a celebration! Congrats (and a million thank yous!) to The Memphis Lift for 10 YEARS of incredible impact for students and parents in Memphis & beyond. And HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Sarah Carpenter! 🥳🧡

Geoffrey Canada was here in Memphis today speaking truth to power, truth to powerful parents. Ended with a beautiful poem. Day 2 of The Memphis Lift’s 10 Year Anniversary Summit is tomorrow, 10-4 at KIPP HS in Memphis. Be there! #Memphis
