I'm honored to be recognized by Nonprofit HR as a 2024 Social Impact Women to Watch list finalist. Reading about the other finalists, I am inspired to be among so many talented women working to improve the lives of others. Congrats to all the finalists! nonprofithr.com/2024-social-im…
🏀Thank you to Eat. Learn. Play. Foundation, @ousdnews, Stephen Curry, @AyeshaCurry, and the Bhusri family for supporting the transformation of Laurel Elementary School! 400 kids now have access to a new playground, multi-sport courts, a Little Town Library, and a nature exploration area!
I also celebrated my friend & changemaker Dr. Lisa N. Herring at @cbcfinc. She’s taking on a new role as Strategic Advisor to the Sec. of Education that will more broadly impact kids' educational outcomes. We talked about the magical possibilities for our kids through real partnership
Last night I attended a @cbcfinc reception hosted by @apple. I had a great time connecting with Congresswoman Nikema Williams, who is fighting for equity in Black communities in Atlanta & across the country, & discussing the ongoing work of KABOOM! in Atlanta through our 25 in 5 Initiative.
It’s #ParkandRecMonth and we’re highlighting our incredible partners in the field. As part of our 25 Initiative, we’ve partnered with San Francisco Recreation and Park Department to address gaps in access to quality, nature-rich kid’s playspaces in communities that lack resources. #WhereCommunityGrows
Spending time with Rep. Tony Gonzales gave me so much hope. Such a good human. We appreciate your loving energy and your support. Thanks for championing our work and our efforts to achieve #playspaceequity

Kids in Pasadena, TX have a new playground AND a 171-foot long mural to enjoy. Check out this new installation at Pasadena Highlands Park, where we recently built a playground with the community and Hancock Whitney.
Mental Health Awareness Month may be ending, but our mission of creating equitable access to places where kids feel a sense of belonging will continue.
