This #GivingTuesday, we shine a light on @ahomeawaysf, a program that seeks to radically alter the trajectory of children facing housing insecurity -- creating a safe, enriching environment to foster a sense of family, community, creativity, and new experiences. "If I ever get rich, I will donate a lot to Home Away. I know my success will have been because of you." (Home Away high school student).

Jose Garcia, a proud Wixárika community member, reflects on the sacred value of interconnectedness — a guiding principle in his life, work, and relationships. 🌎✨ As he shares, 'How can we make those relationships… just? So that we're able to be at the same level? So we’re able to trust each other.'

This #NativeAmericanHeritageDay, we stand with Jose and honor the wisdom and enduring strength of Indigenous people and values that inspire equity, trust, and harmony in our shared humanity.
