Thread Family Courtney and Leslie met up for the first time, after texting consistently over winter. They had dinner in Fells Point before taking a boat ride from Fells to Locust Point, and back! This is why volunteer consistency is key to creating lasting relationships with young people.

We’re honored to be featured by former Surgeon General @drvivekmurthy , who highlights the power of Thread’s 10-year promise to Baltimore youth. In a world that can feel more disconnected than ever, we believe in showing up—again and again—for one another. Dr. Murthy’s words remind us: “Our relationships are our anchors.” Click the link in our bio to read his reflections on the impact of long-term commitment and the strength of community.

Happy #TeacherAppreciationWeek! Teachers are essential partners in the work we do to support young people through graduation and beyond. We've been appreciating teachers and staff at our seven school sites all week, with breakfast and lunch served by our site-based teams.

ICYMI: Thread’s Career Expo was yesterday! With 26 partners, our community connected not only to resources but also to future pathways, including college, entrepreneurship, military, licensure/certification, and straight-to-work. A huge thank you to all of your young people, volunteers, partners, and staff for making this event a success. And if we forgot to tag you, let us know!

One Thread tradition that dates back to the beginning is Quad! Quad is a celebration of four years in Thread, including an event and the Quad Award, a special word chosen by volunteers to describe their young person. This year, we held Quad all across the city at our individual school sites!

Ever seen Baltimore from the water? We took current and potential volunteers on a @baltimorewatertaxi tour of the harbor to see Baltimore from a whole new perspective - the Thread perspective. Volunteers connected and shared their experiences, putting in the work to create a better Baltimore for everyone.
