Celebrating life’s sweetest moments by supporting local!

For GrantForesight’s President, we chose her favorite local dessert spot…Hudson Valley Cheesecake of course. Dana never disappoints! Every slice is made with excellence, and every purchase is an investment in our community.

At GrantForesight, we’re proud to celebrate the businesses that make Newburgh shine. 💚

Congratulations to these bright, young entrepreneurs as they completed the #Launchpad Shark Tank series with @orangechamberny . I foresee all of them going far and wish them much success.

If you missed their presentation, you missed a glimpse into the "before they were big" energy. Cannot wait to follow their journeys.

You did that!🙌🏾 #communitypartnerships really do matter!
Plant Parenthood 101 (No Stress Allowed!)
🌼 Start Simple
• Pick easy crops first
Try: lettuce, tomatoes, peppers, radishes, green beans

• Start small
Better to succeed with a few plants than overwhelm yourself

GrantForesight is happy to be a part of and capture the magic🍅🌶️🥔🫑#grantforesight #ocnychambermember #newburghfreelibrary #plantingmakesmehappy

WORTH THE READ…YOUTH EMPOWERMENT rendered by GrantForesight’s own-College Architectural Scholar Hanibal R. Grant (materials Plastelline clay and wood)

Still Here confronts over four hundred years of enslavement, racial violence, and systemic oppression endured by Black people, while refusing the narrative of disappearance. The bust stands as both witness and survivor. The expression is deliberate—worn, steady, and unbroken—carrying the accumulated weight of generations who were brutalized yet never erased.
The scarf is not ornamental. It is a rope—a noose—referencing the technologies of control, terror, and execution used to discipline Black bodies across slavery and its afterlives. Wrapped around the neck rather than tightened, the noose becomes a reclaimed symbol. It speaks to survival in the face of intended annihilation. What was meant to kill instead becomes visible, named, and stripped of its power.
The rough, unsettled surface of the plastelline clay resists refinement, mirroring histories that are scarred, unresolved, and ongoing. This material refuses completion, much like the legacy of slavery itself. The wooden base grounds the figure in ancestry and land, evoking roots that persist despite forced displacement and cultural erasure.
Still Here is not a memorial to death—it is an assertion of life. The work insists on presence where absence was intended, declaring that survival itself is a form of resistance. The figure does not ask to be seen. It stands as proof that Black existence, after centuries of attempted destruction, remains. #grantforesight #ocnychambermember #youthempowerment #educationalequity #famu
