✨ Last week, FFH brought neighbors together! ✨

On October 8, Focus for Health Foundation welcomed grantee partners, philanthropic friends, and nonprofit and community leaders from Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, and Pennsylvania for our annual Partner Summit. We hosted an amazing event, Bridging Neighbors: A Community Changemakers Summit.

It was a day filled with meaningful conversations, new connections, shared learning, wellness, and celebration. Most importantly, it was an opportunity to step away from the day-to-day, learn from one another, and recognize the incredible work happening in our communities.

We are grateful to everyone who joined us and helped make this gathering so special. When we create space for people to connect and share ideas, we strengthen the relationships that help communities thrive.

💚 Different strengths. One community.

💚✨ SPONSOR SPOTLIGHT: FOCUS FOR HEALTH FOUNDATION ✨💚

As we close out our Sponsor Spotlight series, we are proud to recognize Focus for Health Foundation, a longtime and valued partner of Nassan’s Place.

For many years, their generous annual support has helped fund our programs and services, creating meaningful opportunities and support for children and families affected by autism in and around under-served, inner-city communities.

Focus for Health Foundation has also helped us grow by creating opportunities to strengthen our knowledge and organizational capacity — investing in both the work we do and our ability to do it well.

We are incredibly grateful for their continued belief in our mission and their years of partnership. Thank you, @focusforhealth, for helping Nassan’s Place continue to grow, serve, and make an impact. 💙✨

🌟 Welcome to the Focus for Health Family! 🌟

We are excited to introduce our newest grantee partner, Lift Every Voice Philly.

Lift Every Voice Philly is a Black-led, multiracial organization that builds parent power to advance education, racial, and economic justice in Philadelphia’s public schools. Their work focuses on communities that have been historically underserved and denied access to safe, stable, well-resourced schools, using a two-generation model that empowers parents to lead while staying grounded in the needs of their children.

At Focus for Health Foundation, we believe lasting change happens when communities have a voice in the decisions that affect their lives. We are proud to support organizations like Lift Every Voice Philly that are creating pathways for family leadership and educational equity. You can learn more: www.lifteveryvoicephilly.org

Please join us in welcoming Lift Every Voice Philly to the Focus for Health family! 💙

Grantee Partner Spotlight 💚

We’re celebrating our amazing partner, Black Girl Smile. A nonprofit dedicated to supporting the mental health of young Black women and girls through advocacy, education, and community. ✨ Learn more at www.blackgirlsmile.org

Recently, they shared the sweetest ideas for solo spring dates, and we loved it so much we had to run it back 🌸

Taking time for yourself isn’t selfish, it’s restorative. Whether it’s a walk in the sunshine, journaling in your favorite spot, or trying something new just for you, these small moments can make a big impact on your mental well-being.

Consider this your gentle reminder: you deserve your own care, attention, and joy.

May is Mental Health Awareness Month 💚

At Focus for Health Foundation, we believe that mental health is just as important as physical health. Taking time to care for your mind isn’t a luxury; it’s essential.

Check in with yourself. Reach out to someone you trust. And remember: asking for help is a sign of strength, not weakness.

Let’s break the stigma, start conversations, and support one another, today and every day.

Shining a Light on Our Grantee Partner 🌱
At Focus for Health Foundation, we’re proud to uplift the work of Social Change Community Farm and the powerful transformation taking root in Englewood.

What began as a vacant lot is now an officially recognized farm — Farm #2360.

This milestone represents more than a designation. It reflects ownership, food sovereignty, and long-term investment in building community-led infrastructure on Chicago’s South Side.
Through this work, resources are being redirected into the community, creating sustainable pathways for access to fresh food, economic opportunity, and collective power.
And the work continues to grow. 🌻The farm is currently welcoming spring and summer volunteers to help plant, build, and harvest; no experience needed. Upcoming gardening and food sovereignty workshops will also be hosted at the Chicago Public Library West Englewood Branch.

This is what community-driven health and prevention look like in action.
