🌟 Impacting the Community Together 🌟 Can you believe the @playdate.project was just one month ago!? We are beyond grateful for the incredible turnout and support we received, where we made a powerful impact in partnership with @the.riverside.project. With over 20+ amazing vendors and 30+ generous donors, we raised over $8,000 to support a cause that truly matters. The Riverside Project is dedicated to empowering communities to play their part along the river of the foster care system—whether through prevention, intervention, or restoration. Their mission inspires all of us to come together and make a lasting difference in the lives of children and families. Nearly 200 attendees came together, creating lasting partnerships between local businesses and ensuring a successful event for all ages. A special shoutout to the exciting collaboration between @thebunnyhivehtx and @the.pediatric.dietitian at The Picky Eater event this past Monday. We love how this event brought about new partnerships for Houston and beyond. Once again, thank you to everyone who contributed—your support is helping make a difference! 💙✨ #CommunityImpact #RiversideOrganization #FosterCareSupport #BunnyHive #PediatricDietitian #NewPartnerships #LocalSupport #Grateful #EventSuccess #HoustonMoms #HoustonEvents by @playdate.project
