A Giant Surprise at EOBA

Big things really do come in big packages.


For the past two years, former Warriors center Adonal Foyle has been working out at EOBA and cheering on our youth. He loves what he sees so much, he even brings friends like Festus Ezeli to join in.


Then, for the second time, he surprised us with a donation.


Thanks to this support, and in partnership with Big City Mountaineers, our teens are stepping into nature in ways many never have before. From day hikes to a four day outdoor adventure, they are learning, exploring, and building confidence beyond the classroom. No cell phones. No charging cords. Just nature.


We expect a little “withdrawal” but a lot of growth.


Photos below are from their most recent day hike.


Thank you to Adonal and the Kerosene Lamp Foundation, and to Big City Mountaineers, for helping our youth experience a bigger world.

Youth Spotlight

Ashley Rodriguez is a powerful example of what happens when young people are given real opportunity. Through our FutureWorks program and partnerships with Lao Family, EOYDC, YEP, Unity Council, and Arise High School, Ashley joined EOBA as a quiet high school intern.


Today, at just 18, she has graduated, lives independently, and supports herself while taking on leadership at EOBA. She writes grants, strengthens programs, and serves as an ambassador, representing EOBA at community events and speaking about our work with confidence and purpose.


Ashley’s growth has been transformative, not only for her, but for our organization. Her leadership and voice are helping shape our programs and expand our impact. She is not just part of the future, she is helping build it now.
