MOVING A GENERATION TO ACT

Teen Parents Give Back

To kick off a June full of compassion, Lumen High School students packed 60 resource bags to help support the homeless population. Lumen is a revolutionary new charter school providing pathways of success for teen parents. After listening to a testimony of someone who used to be homeless, students packed the bags and then wrote kind and encouraging notes to those receiving them.

Lakeside Middle School packs 29,200 meals!

Sixth, seventh and eigth-grade Lakeside Middle School students worked together to pack 29,200 meals. They were led by action team members who have been meeting weekly for four weeks to learn more about what it means to be food insecure and how they can help those in their community who are. To teach their peers what food insecurity is, they created a video skit that was shown after the packing sessions.

The Inaugural Golf Classic was a huge success!

Despite Arizona-like weather (108 degrees!), we still had 130 golfers come out to the Inaugural Generation Alive Golf Classic sponsored by CliftonLarsonAllen.

Together, we raised over $68,000 towards the mission of empowering the rising generation!

See below for all our sponsors that made this event possible.

Meet Sloan!

Chris "Sloan" (right) joins the Generation Alive team as our new Community Engagement Director. He comes to GA with a wealth of experience in both youth ministry and non-profit philantrophy. He served as a youth pastor for 18 years before he & his wife, Brenna, started Bite2Go that provides backpacks of food on the weekends for young people experiencing hunger. Today, over 5,000 kids receive food every weekend through this program! We are so excited to welcome him and look forward to the impact he will make on this mission. To send Sloan some best wishes as he gets started, you can email him at sloan@generationalive.org.
