Thank you to everyone who attended our Power-up Open House on September 12th! We hope you had as much fun as we did. It was amazing seeing our wonderful supporters and partners celebrate our new space along with our Hopeworks family.
The day began with tours from our youth and interns and networking; and ended with a few speakers and delicious light lunch from our friends at Cathedral Kitchen, with deserts from Peace of Cake!
Mayor Moran attended and spoke at the Power-Up, awarding us with a proclamation honoring Hopeworks and our new space; and Congressman Donald Norcross also attended and spoke about his support of the work we do here. We were truly honored to receive a letter of support from U.S. Senator Cory Booker congratulating us on our new home. We truly feel welcome here on Market Street!
