Celebrating 2025 Graduates

This month, we gathered at the Whitehall Shine Bright Community Center to celebrate and honor Home for Families program participants who recently earned diplomas, degrees, and certifications. The afternoon was a beautiful celebration of our clients’ strength and resilience and a heartfelt reminder of how our programs help families achieve better futures. We are humbled to walk alongside HFF families every day and elated when we get to celebrate their moments of joy with them. 

A very special thank you to Purple Star Photo for joining us for this special event and providing professional headshots for our clients as they embark on their new journeys!
