Honor the Past. Celebrate the Present. Embrace the Future. Understanding that our community’s past has been the vehicle that has carried us to this moment, SOSNA strived to create a logo that celebrates the rich history created by those who build this community. We aimed to acknowledge those who were the “firsts” of their time. Those who worked against all odds to create the neighborhood now known as Graduate Hospital. In this vein, we want to celebrate the present. Celebrate the dedication of all those who strive to enhance this community. We celebrate while acknowledging there is work to be done in order to ensure everyone in our community feels they belong. By honoring our past and being engaged in the present, we energize the future. #community #unity #diversity #family #smallbusiness #weallbelonghere
