“I can’t believe I’m leaving here,” Savion said as he looked at his room at the Calabrese Youth Center (CYC) for the last time. This is just a glimpse of Savion’s journey at the CYC. Savion’s story is part of our ongoing series, “Faces of Laradon,” which highlights different students, participants, staff members, donors and more within the Laradon community. Read Savion’s full story below. #FacesofLaradon #Newbeginnings https://lnkd.in/gGwvFyBQ

Every week, one of our dedicated volunteer teams embraces the spirit of giving back to the community that supports us. Last week, participants joined forces with Denver Community Fridges to tackle food insecurity together—it's food for the community, by the community. Outings like these provide opportunities for our adults to connect with our community, all the while working on skills they can use in the future. 🍎🥪 #Laradon #DenverCommunityFridges #Volunteering #EmpoweringPossibilities
