"Trusting the Heart of Jesus-Part 2”Mark 7:31-37Having recently completed our series “None Like Jesus” let's continue to “Behold Him” by embarking on a new study through the Gospel of Mark. Mark's Gospel is the shortest of the four Gospels and it is action-packed from start to finish – as evidenced by the word “immediately” used over 40 times. Mark wrote to believers, probably Roman believers, who were no strangers to persecution. And he wanted to disciple his readers to be strong in their faith by encouraging them to look to their Mighty Messiah, the Son of God, who remained steadfastly faithful even while becoming their Suffering Servant who died for them. Mark's Gospel is a call to all believers to fearlessly “Follow Jesus” because they can trust Him completely.

In this episode of Kentucky History & Haunts, we head back to August 1925—a month of sensational scandals and small-town crime sprees that made big headlines.First, you'll hear the wild tale of Lucy Wagner McMills, a young woman accused of kidnapping her husband and tricking him into marriage after a whirlwind romance. Newspapers from Kentucky to New York branded her a “Modern Cavewoman,” while her groom swore he'd been too drunk to know he was saying “I do.”Then, we dive into the chaotic, decades-long saga of the Alford family of Winchester, known as “the Bootleg Syndicate” during Prohibition. From barn raids to shootouts, jailbreaks to safe-cracking, the Alfords' rap sheets stretched across generations. George Alford was dubbed the Bootleg King of the Bluegrass, while his children—including Virgil, Tommy, and Woodrow—made headlines for everything from moonshining to armed robbery.This episode has it all: star-crossed lovers, outlaw families, jailbreaks, scandals, and tragedy.

The Family Drive-In Theatre stands as a living testament to a bygone era—one where families gathered under the stars, children played on grassy lawns, and the magic of cinema brought communities together. In this episode of “Tourism Tuesday” on The Valley Today, host Janet Michael and co-host Justin Kerns from the Winchester/Frederick County Convention & Visitors Bureau sat down with theatre general manager Ron Graham to explore the rich history, present challenges, and hopeful future of this beloved local institution. Since opening its gates in 1956, the Family Drive-In has weathered the storms of changing times, economic pressures, and even a global pandemic. Ron, whose passion for the theater is palpable, recounted stories of resilience and adaptation—from navigating COVID-19 restrictions to maintaining the drive-in's unique double-feature tradition. “We've never closed, not once since we opened,” Ron proudly shared, highlighting the theater's commitment to providing a safe, joyful space for families, even when indoor venues shuttered. But the drive-in is more than just a place to watch movies. It's a hub of community spirit, where seasonal events like Easter egg hunts and visits from Santa Claus create lasting memories. The theater's open spaces invite children to play and neighbors to reconnect, fostering a sense of belonging that's increasingly rare in today's fast-paced world. As Justin noted, “It's a social mechanism we don't have at a closed indoor movie theater. Here, you're expected to talk to people and meet your neighbors.” Yet, the future of the Family Drive-In hangs in the balance. With the land under separate ownership and rising operational costs, Ron and his team are rallying the community to help secure the theater's survival. Fundraising efforts are underway, aiming to ensure that this piece of Americana remains for generations to come. “If everyone who follows you on Facebook gave just $10, you'd be nearly there,” Janet observed, underscoring the power of collective action. As the Family Drive-In approaches its 70th anniversary, its story is a poignant reminder of the value of shared experiences and the importance of preserving local treasures. For Ron, Justin, and countless families, the drive-in is more than a business—it's a legacy of joy, nostalgia, and community spirit. And with the support of Winchester and beyond, its screen may continue to light up the night for many years to come. To learn about Family Drive-in sanctioned fundraisers, follow them on Facebook.

On a lively corner of Old Town Winchester, the unassuming facade of Broken Window Brewing Company hides a vibrant hub of creativity, community, and award-winning beer. In this episode of The Valley Today, host Janet Michael sits down with Brady Cloven, Executive Director of Friends of Old Town and his guest, Zach Aufdenberg, owner and head brewer, to explore the story behind one of Winchester's coolest breweries and the pulse of a neighborhood in transformation. Zach's journey from homebrewing hobbyist to brewery owner began a decade ago, spurred by his wife's suggestion to “get a hobby.” What started as a weekly experiment in his basement quickly escalated into a full-fledged passion. After taking a class with friend Jacob (who would become the brewery's first head brewer), Zach dove into the science and art of brewing, learning the ropes through trial, error, and a lot of cleaning. “Homebrewing isn't cheap,” he laughs, “but it's addictive.” Broken Window Brewing opened its doors in March 2018, after a lengthy buildout in a historic building on Boscawen Street. The space, once divided and dilapidated, was transformed into a cozy, exposed-brick taproom with a fireplace and a high-ceilinged, compact brewhouse. “It looks small from the outside, and it is tight back there,” Zach admits, “but we make it work.” The brewery's beers are as unique as its story. Zach crafts each recipe with care, balancing creativity and consistency. Not every experiment is a hit, but the brewery's track record is impressive: Broken Window has medaled at the Virginia Brewery competition every year it's entered, including a recent gold for its double IPA, “The Tank.” The beer, named in honor of a beloved Great Dane regular, is a gentle giant—big on flavor but smooth, just like its namesake. Community is at the heart of Broken Window's mission. The brewery is dog-friendly, hosts quirky events like “Shitty Club Night” and quotable movie nights, and collaborates with local organizations for festivals and adoption events. Zach and Brady discuss the ongoing efforts to revitalize Boscawen Street, from wayfinding signage to dreams of pedestrianizing the block for more outdoor seating and safer, more vibrant public spaces. The conversation also highlights Winchester's blossoming arts scene, with new murals, artist co-ops, and family-friendly activities popping up throughout Old Town. Brady shares updates on upcoming events—Fiddles and Fifths, First Fridays, and the Hispanic festival, Celebración—emphasizing the importance of giving both residents and visitors a reason to explore beyond the main drag. As the episode wraps, Janet commends Zach and Brady for their commitment to innovation and community engagement. For those looking to experience the best of local flavor, creativity, and camaraderie, Broken Window Brewing is more than a place to grab a pint—it's a cornerstone of a neighborhood on the rise.

Berly and LA dive into Season 8, Episode 10 of Supernatural, where poor little Alfie (Samandriel) is getting the torture treatment from Crowley's bow-tied minion Vigo - who the hosts can't figure out the point of since Crowley shows up anyway. Meanwhile, Sam's dealing with the Amelia situation (cue the fisting jokes), Dean and Castiel are having their own bromantic rescue mission, and everyone's making questionable life choices.The episode features angel screams that make bushes burst into flames, Kevin being sassy on his houseboat, and Castiel carrying around a Sharpie like the prepared angel he is. Things get dark when Naomi's mind control reaches peak creepy dentist vibes, leading to a heartbreaking farewell to Samandriel that has the hosts crying into their drinks.The Winchester boys finally hash out their jealousy issues (character development!), but not before Dean has to cut ties with Benny, leaving the hosts worried about everyone's mental health.

In the heart of Old Town Winchester, the RISE (Resources. Inclusion. Support. Empowerment.) Community Center stands as a testament to the power of community, compassion, and resilience. Home to AIDS Response Effort (ARE), the organization has evolved over the past 35 years from a small group of volunteers supporting those affected by HIV/AIDS into a vibrant hub for HIV services, LGBTQ+ support, and community empowerment. In this conversation on The Valley Today with host Janet Michael, executive director Katie Vance shared the journey of the center's transformation, the challenges faced, and the profound impact it continues to have on the lives of local residents. The RISE Community Center's mission is multifaceted: it provides free and confidential HIV, STI, and Hepatitis C testing, case management, and a range of harm reduction services. Katie emphasized the importance of accessible testing, noting a recent uptick in positive cases since the pandemic and the center's ability to connect individuals to life-saving medications and support. “People can live long, healthy lives with the right resources,” she explained, dispelling persistent myths and highlighting the advances in HIV treatment. But the RISE Community Center is more than a healthcare provider—it's a safe haven and a gathering place. The center hosts a variety of support and affinity groups, from LGBTQ+ youth and seniors to hobby-based meetups like Stitch and Bitch. Its library, housed in a former bank vault, offers hundreds of books and resources for parents and individuals seeking understanding and affirmation. The center's gender-affirming closet, community garden, and volunteer-run programs further illustrate its commitment to holistic care. Katie and Janet discussed the ongoing need for volunteers and community advocacy, especially in the face of dwindling funding and persistent stigma. The center relies on donations and the dedication of its volunteers to keep its doors open and its programs running. Katie called on the community to not only support financially but also to challenge harmful language and myths, and to show up for LGBTQ+ neighbors. The conversation closed with a sobering reflection: without ARE and the RISE Community Center, many in Winchester would lose access to critical health services, support networks, and a sense of belonging. As Katie put it, “It's a human rights issue, not a political one.” The RISE Comunity Center's story is a powerful reminder that when a community comes together to care for its most vulnerable, everyone benefits—and hope truly rises.

As Labor Day approaches, the Shenandoah Valley Discovery Museum is buzzing with anticipation—not just for the end of summer, but for a beloved annual tradition: the museum's week-long closure and transformation. In a recent episode of “The Valley Today,” host Janet Michael sat down with Executive Director Dawn Devine and Director of Development and Marketing Tammy Stevenson to discuss the museum's latest updates, the impact of its summer programs, and the excitement building around its upcoming gala and 30th anniversary. The conversation opens with a look back at a vibrant summer, where the museum hosted over 40 themed camps led by educators, offering everything from space exploration to chess and even a fairies camp. These camps, which serve children from preschool through sixth grade, are a testament to the museum's commitment to hands-on, curriculum-based learning. As the school year begins and attendance naturally dips, the museum seizes the opportunity to close for a week over Labor Day, using the time to refresh and reinvent its exhibits. Dawn shares the philosophy behind this annual reset: “We decided to capitalize on this time and shut down for the week of Labor Day. Each year we make some changes—sometimes huge.” Past years have seen dramatic overhauls, like replacing a beloved ambulance exhibit with an excavator and revamping entire floors. This year, the focus is on creativity and inclusivity. The museum's studio will become a fully functioning art space, open throughout the school year, where children can experiment with different materials and even paint their own faces. A new Lego area will also be a permanent fixture. Recognizing the needs of families with young children, the museum is introducing a designated “littles” area on the third floor, complete with a train theme to delight its youngest visitors. On the fourth floor, a quiet, space-themed reading room is being created, featuring a rocket ship, blue lighting, and a large-scale “Lite Brite” for sensory play. This thoughtful approach ensures that children of all ages—and their families—can find spaces that suit their interests and needs. The episode also highlights the museum's role as a community hub, drawing 75,000 to 85,000 visitors annually and reaching even more through outreach programs. The team's dedication to maintaining a welcoming, ever-evolving environment is evident in their hands-on approach to exhibit changes, with staff, board members, and community volunteers all pitching in during the Labor Day transformation. Looking ahead, Tammy shares details about the museum's signature fundraising event: the “Up, Up, and Away” gala, set for September 27th. This adults-only evening is not just a celebration but a vital source of support for the museum's programs and scholarships. The gala's theme offers a sneak peek at upcoming exhibits, and each floor of the museum is transformed with unique decorations, food, and entertainment. The event also features an auction focused on experiences—like winery trips and birthday parties at the museum—underscoring the institution's mission to create lasting memories for families. As the museum prepares to mark its 30th anniversary in 2026, the conversation is filled with gratitude for the community's unwavering support. Both Dawn and Tammy emphasize the importance of transparency in fundraising, ensuring that donations are used as intended, whether for scholarships or new exhibits. They also invite listeners to visit, take a tour, and experience firsthand the magic that has made the Shenandoah Valley Discovery Museum a cherished part of Winchester's cultural landscape. In a world where play, learning, and community intersect, the Shenandoah Valley Discovery Museum stands as a beacon of creativity and connection—ready to welcome the next generation of explorers, artists, and dreamers.

Today, we are joined by Susan Winchester.Susan Schmitt Winchester is a former Chief Human Resources Officer of Applied Materials and co-author of Healing at Work, Susan brings more than 35 years of senior HR experience—and a deeply personal mission to help professionals transform workplace pain into personal growth. Drawing from her own experience as an Adult Survivor of a Damaged Past, she combines science, storytelling, and strategy to help us turn our triggers into triumphs.In this episode, we explore how our past experiences, particularly childhood wounds, show up in workplace behaviors and how leaders can transform these patterns into sources of strength and resilience. Susan introduces the concept of ASDP (Adult Survivors of a Damaged Past) and reveals how nearly 67% of adults have experienced significant adversity before age 18, yet many remain unaware of how these experiences drive their professional reactions. Through real-world examples and research-backed strategies, we discover how workplace conflicts—what Susan calls "bumper car moments"—can become powerful opportunities for healing and growth rather than sources of ongoing pain.Key topics include:Understanding ASDP (Adult Survivors of a Damaged Past) and how childhood experiences manifest in workplace behaviors like perfectionism, people-pleasing, and fear of criticismThe difference between the unconscious wounded career path and the conscious healing career path, and how to make the shiftHow "bumper car moments" - workplace conflicts and triggers - can become catalysts for transformation rather than sources of sufferingThe Rapid Power Reclaim method for pausing, creating choice, and responding from strength rather than reacting from old woundsPractical strategies for managers to support team members while maintaining appropriate boundaries and focusing on performanceLearn from Susan's insights how to recognize when past experiences are driving current workplace behaviors and gain practical tools for creating psychological safety in your organization. Discover why celebrating small wins is crucial for rewiring neural pathways, how to interrupt negative self-talk with simple questions like "Am I sure?", and why vulnerability in leadership creates stronger, more resilient teams that perform at higher levels.Susan Winchester's Website: https://susanwinchester.comSusan Winchester's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/susanschmittwinchester/Healing at Work Book: https://healingatwork.com/about-the-book/-Website and live online programs: http://ims-online.comBlog: https://blog.ims-online.com/Podcast: https://ims-online.com/podcasts/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/charlesagood/Twitter: https://twitter.com/charlesgood99Chapters:(00:00) Introduction(01:00) Susan's Journey and What Inspired the Book(03:45) Understanding ASDP - Adult Survivors of a Damaged Past(06:45) How Childhood Wounds Show Up in Workplace Behaviors(12:00) Moving from Unconscious to Conscious Career Paths(16:45) Bumper Car Moments as Catalysts for Growth(19:00) The Science of Neuroplasticity and Positive Change(22:00) Supporting Employees While Respecting Boundaries(27:00) The Power of Celebrating Small Wins(33:00) Interrupting Negative Self-Talk and Limiting Beliefs(39:00) Integrating Healing Principles into Organizational Culture(44:00) Handling Feedback When It Triggers Old Wounds(50:00) Red Flags of the Unconscious Wounded Career Path(55:00) Conclusion

“The Heart of the Problem is the Problem of the Heart”Mark 7:1-23Having recently completed our series “None Like Jesus” let's continue to “Behold Him” by embarking on a new study through the Gospel of Mark.

On a bustling afternoon at the Espresso Bar in downtown Winchester, Janet Michael, host of “The Valley Today,” sat down with Kit Redmer, City of Winchester's Communications Director, for a candid conversation about civic engagement, community development, and the evolving face of Winchester. Their discussion, rich with insights and local flavor, offered a window into how the city is fostering a more informed and involved citizenry through its innovative Civic Leadership Academy and other community initiatives. The Civic Leadership Academy, as Kit explained, is Winchester's answer to the age-old question: “How does my city really work?” Modeled after similar programs but tailored to Winchester's unique needs, the Academy invites residents to take a deep dive into the inner workings of local government. Over nine months, participants meet monthly to explore topics ranging from city management and budgeting to public safety, parks, and social services. The program is designed to be accessible, with sessions scheduled to accommodate busy professionals and students alike. Kit emphasized that the Academy is not just for aspiring politicians or city officials. “It's a low-barrier, first step for anyone who wants to get involved—whether you're new to Winchester or a lifelong resident,” he said. The program's alumni include city councilors, board members, and everyday citizens who simply want to make a difference. Beyond the curriculum, the Academy fosters connections among like-minded individuals, offering alumni events and social gatherings that help build a sense of community. The conversation shifted to the city's ongoing transformation, most notably the redevelopment of Ward Plaza. For many, including Janet, the changes evoke nostalgia and a sense of loss for the Winchester of their youth. Yet, as Kit pointed out, the new mixed-use development promises to bring housing, retail, green spaces, and modern amenities to the area, addressing both economic and environmental needs. The project's innovative approach to recycling demolition materials and maximizing space with parking garages reflects Winchester's commitment to sustainability and smart growth. Kit also highlighted the city's focus on neighborhood design districts, which aim to revitalize various areas with parks, green spaces, and community-driven planning. These efforts, he noted, are informed by resident feedback and designed to enhance quality of life for all. Central to Winchester's approach is a commitment to listening. Every two years, the city conducts a comprehensive community survey, inviting residents to weigh in on everything from public safety to parks and utilities. The results directly influence strategic planning and budgeting, ensuring that city leaders remain responsive to the needs and priorities of their constituents. Reder encouraged residents to participate, reminding listeners that their voices matter—whether through surveys, public meetings, or direct communication with city staff. Janet echoed this sentiment, urging citizens to take advantage of the many opportunities to engage constructively with local government, rather than simply venting frustrations on social media. “You have so many opportunities to make your voice heard by the people who can actually make a difference,” she said. Throughout the conversation, both Janet and Kit underscored Winchester's efforts to make information and opportunities accessible. From the city's user-friendly website and newsletters to the open-door policy of city staff, the message was clear: Winchester wants its residents to feel informed, empowered, and connected. As the episode wrapped up, Kit invited everyone interested in the Civic Leadership Academy to apply, promising a rewarding experience that offers both knowledge and community. For a city in the midst of change, Winchester's commitment to civic education and engagement stands as a model for how local governments can build stronger, more resilient communities—one informed citizen at a time.

Stepping into the ShenArts Artist Co-op on Winchester's Old Town walking mall, visitors are greeted by a kaleidoscope of color, creativity, and community spirit. In a recent episode of “The Valley Today,” host Janet Michael sat down with Kelly McDermott, president of the Shenandoah Arts Council, to explore the story behind this dynamic space and its impact on the local arts scene. The conversation traces the co-op's journey from vision to reality, highlighting the collaborative effort that transformed a once-hidden space into a thriving gallery. Kelly shares how the Shenandoah Arts Council created the artist co-op that not only showcases a diverse array of art—from paintings and textiles to woodwork, glass, and pottery—but also serves as a launchpad for artists of all backgrounds. The gallery's rotating exhibits and juried membership process ensure that both established and emerging talents have a platform to shine. Beyond the gallery walls, the ShenArts Council is deeply invested in community engagement. The annual ShenArts Fine Art Festival brings together artists, performers, and art lovers for a celebration of creativity, while educational programs and business workshops empower artists to grow their skills and careers. Kelly and Janet discuss the importance of supporting young artists, pricing artwork, and fostering connections between artists, collectors, and the broader community. As Winchester garners national attention for its vibrant downtown and cultural offerings, the ShenArts Artist Co-op stands out as a beacon for creativity and collaboration. Whether you're an artist, a collector, or simply an admirer of the arts, the co-op invites everyone to experience the transformative power of art—and to become part of a growing movement that's putting Winchester on the creative map.

In a recent episode of “The Valley Today,” host Janet Michael welcomed Les Sinclair, Communications and PR Manager for the Blue Ridge Area Food Bank, for an in-depth conversation about the organization's essential work and the growing challenges of food insecurity in Virginia. Covering a staggering 12,000 square miles—about a third of the state—the Blue Ridge Area Food Bank serves as a logistical powerhouse, operating four distribution centers in Verona, Charlottesville, Winchester, and Lynchburg. Les described the food bank as the “big umbrella” for a network of local pantries, likening its role to a Walmart distribution center that supplies smaller “stores” (the pantries) with food and resources. The food bank's impact is immense: last year alone, it distributed 32 million pounds of food, including nearly 10 million pounds of fresh produce, to partner agencies. This focus on healthy, nutritious options is intentional, as Les emphasized the importance of fighting chronic disease and supporting overall community health. The organization's reach extends beyond food, providing grants for equipment like coolers, refrigerators, and even computers to help pantries better serve their guests. These “Partner in Impact and Innovation” grants are vital for smaller pantries that lack the resources to access large-scale government programs like those run by the USDA. Les and Janet discussed the rising demand for food assistance, with the food bank experiencing year-over-year growth rates of 16%—even higher than during the pandemic's peak. Inflation, high housing and childcare costs, and stagnant wages have pushed more families, seniors, and children to seek help. More than half of those served are children and seniors, dispelling the myth that food pantries only serve the unemployed or “lazy.” Many recipients are hardworking individuals facing temporary setbacks, such as job loss, divorce, or unexpected expenses. The conversation also highlighted the importance of community support. Financial donations are especially powerful, with every dollar helping to provide three meals thanks to the food bank's ability to purchase in bulk. Volunteers are the lifeblood of the organization, contributing over 2,500 hours of work—equivalent to 14 full-time positions. Les encouraged listeners to consider all forms of giving, from time and money to advocacy and even sharing social media posts to raise awareness. Hunger Action Month, observed in September, is a key initiative for the food bank, focusing on education, volunteerism, and advocacy. Les urged the community to support a strong Farm Bill, which funds critical programs like SNAP and the Emergency Food Assistance Program (TEFAP). The food bank also distributes non-food essentials such as laundry detergent, pet food, and hygiene products, recognizing that these items can make a significant difference for struggling families. The conversation concluded with a look to the future, as the food bank welcomes new CEO Kari Jorgensen Diener, a humanitarian leader with global experience. Les expressed optimism about the organization's direction and reiterated the importance of collective action: whether through donations, volunteering, or simply spreading the word, everyone has a role to play in ending hunger. For more information, resources, or to get involved, visit the Blue Ridge Area Food Bank's website: https://www.brafb.org/ which features a food finder tool and easy ways to donate or volunteer. Together, the community can ensure that no one in the Valley goes hungry.

"Sent into the Storm"Mark 6:45-56Having recently completed our series “None Like Jesus” let's continue to “Behold Him” by embarking on a new study through the Gospel of Mark. Mark's Gospel is the shortest of the four Gospels and it is action-packed from start to finish – as evidenced by the word “immediately” used over 40 times. Mark wrote to believers, probably Roman believers, who were no strangers to persecution. And he wanted to disciple his readers to be strong in their faith by encouraging them to look to their Mighty Messiah, the Son of God, who remained steadfastly faithful even while becoming their Suffering Servant who died for them. Mark's Gospel is a call to all believers to fearlessly “Follow Jesus” because they can trust Him completely.

While in Kenya, Emma Kate sits down with a Ugandan Pastor who shares his story of God's pursuit in his life. From childhood growing up in the village witch doctor's house to living in a church to traveling constantly, Samuel shares how God has been working in his life and the amazing things that He has done!

The LORD reigns as the transcendent King over all the earth and all the nations, yet He comes near to His people as He rules from the place where He has promised to dwell. The peoples are called to praise Him for His just and righteous rule. He is the holy God who intends for His holiness to bless us. Moses, Aaron, and Samuel all experienced the blessing of God's holiness as they called upon Him, and He answered with His forgiveness. Because of the forgiveness of our King, Jesus Christ, we call upon God and know that He will answer in His holiness for our blessing.  Rev. Nate Hill, pastor at St. Michael's Lutheran Church in Winchester, TX, joins host Rev. Timothy Appel to study Psalm 99.  To learn more about St. Michael's Lutheran, visit www.stmichaelswinchester.org. Join Sharper Iron this summer to study selected Psalms. In the Psalter, God speaks His Word to us and teaches us how to speak back to Him in prayer. Even in the great variety of the Psalms, each one points us to our Savior, Jesus Christ. 

In a world where the challenges facing students often go unseen, Bright Futures Frederick/Winchester stands as a beacon of hope and practical support for children and families. In a recent episode of The Valley Today host Janet Michael sat down with Elise Stine-Dolinar, the organization's Executive Director, to shed light on the critical work being done behind the scenes to ensure every student has the essentials they need to thrive in school. Bright Futures operates as a small but mighty team—just three staff members—serving 28 schools across Winchester City and Frederick County. Their mission is simple yet profound: to provide basic needs assistance to public school students who might otherwise fall through the cracks. Whether it's a child without a winter coat, a student lacking proper shoes, or a family struggling to put food on the table, Bright Futures steps in to bridge the gap. Elise explains that the organization works closely with school staff, who are often the first to notice when a child is in need. Through a network of designated contacts in each school, requests for help are quickly relayed, allowing Bright Futures to respond with speed and compassion. The scope of need is staggering. Every school in the area has students who rely on Bright Futures for support, whether through the food pack program—which sends weekend meals home with over 1,500 students each week—or through clothing and school supply drives. Elise shares heart-wrenching stories of children who save their food packs for when hunger becomes unbearable, and of teachers who see firsthand the difference a simple snack or a new pair of shoes can make in a child's life. Logistics play a huge role in the organization's success. Their warehouse, described as “organized chaos,” is a hub for donated clothing, food, and supplies. Yet, despite the generosity of the community, there are always gaps—like the elusive pair of jeans in a specific size that a student needs to start the school year with dignity. Financial donations are crucial, allowing Bright Futures to purchase items that aren't readily available through donations. The need doesn't end when the school year does. As Elise points out, “hunger doesn't take a vacation,” and the summer months can be especially tough for families who rely on school meals. Bright Futures continues its work year-round, delivering food and essentials to families in every corner of the community. Community involvement is at the heart of Bright Futures' mission. Elise encourages listeners to donate new or (very) gently used athletic clothing, kid-friendly snacks, and school supplies, or to contribute financially. Even small gestures—like picking up an extra box of granola bars during a grocery run—can have a big impact when combined with the efforts of others. As the conversation draws to a close, Janet and Elise reflect on the power of collective action and the importance of supporting not just students, but also the teachers and staff who care for them. Bright Futures is more than a charity; it's a lifeline for families facing hardship and a testament to what a caring community can achieve when it comes together for its children. For more information or to find out how you can help, click here to visit the Bright Futures Winchester, Frederick County website and follow them on Facebook. Every donation, no matter how small, helps ensure that no child in our community goes without the essentials they need to learn, grow, and succeed.
