We moved out of our Office!
As many of you know, we announced that due to financial hardship and downsizing, we needed to leave our office at the end of our lease. Although it’s not ideal and we have a lot of feelings attached to this beautiful space, we wanted to center the organizations and folks that supported us by taking our items as donations and helping us do the heavy lifting. 💛
Check out our moving weekend shoutouts below!
Huge shoutout to all these folks for their support on-site and off-site!
Our Board of Directors! Cherizar, Opulence, Alandria, and Katie — thank you for providing so much encouragement and support in planning moving logistics! Kristin and Danjai — thank you so much for helping coordinating donation pickups and making room in the storage unit, as well as for your support throughout the moving weekend!
Ester, our beloved former Youth Leader, for connecting us to HEART SC for musical instrument donation!
Mel Walker, HEART SC’s Performing Arts Director, who helped relocate a lot of our speakers, amplifiers, keyboards, and other gear to use for music and performing programming for Charleston adults with disabilities.
Jason Walsh, Dorchester District II’s Fine Arts Department Director, who accepted our drums, hardware, guitars, and amplifiers for youth to play across the school district. The guitars are supplementing the Guitar Program at River Oaks Middle School, allowing children who cannot afford their own guitar to have one to practice at home.
Jonatan, Chandler, and Luka from We Are Family, a Charleston-based nonprofit serving LGBT+ youth via programming, resources, and direct support. They graciously accepted our office supplies and decor, and also have supported us for so long as another youth-centered organization.
John Evans, for generously providing a U-Haul trailer for large items during our move out, transportation, physical labor, and connecting us to both Toni’s Childcare and Coastal Academy preschools to rehome much of our art supplies, crafting materials, maracas, tambourines, beanbags, and cushions.
Tashia Evans, for transportation and donating to secure our storage unit rental for another month.
D’Ondra and her mother, for packing up remaining items in our office prior to Markelle’s arrival in SC for the move.
We appreciate each and every one of you!
