🎉 It's the Final Countdown!
I honestly can’t believe how quickly this year has flown by.
Every December 31st, I find myself doing the same thing: looking back at what I hoped to do this year. What goals did I set on January 1? Did I stick to them? Did they stick to me?
Most of us have goals that are about taking better care of ourselves like more sleep, less screen time, healthier routines. And that’s important.
But I’ve found some of the most fulfilling goals are the ones that help take care of others, goals that help take care of Memphis.
Did you have any generosity goals this year?
If so, and if you haven’t gotten around to checking that box off your 2025 list, there’s still time.

There are just a few hours left to make a tax-deductible donation to Give901 before the year ends.
And yes, it still counts. Even at the buzzer.
It’s simple, quick, and every dollar supports Memphis youth, educators, and schools that are building an incredible future right here in our city.

Looking Ahead
This year has meant so much to me, and I just want to say thank you. Truly.
Getting to share this journey with you, through every volunteer shift, every teacher story, every new Alumni celebration and merch market moment, has been an honor.
You’re not just part of the work. You’re family.
Your energy, your passion, and your love for Memphis keep me going. And I’m so excited to see what we build together in 2026.
So here’s to reflecting, giving, and starting fresh.
Happy New Year, my friend.
Let’s make the next one even better.
