Thread

With the weather warming up, we're spending more time outside☀️ like Thread Family Shaniya and Liz, who had lunch and then took a little stroll around the park.

Preparing young people for adulthood includes teaching them the skills to take care of their mental health. That's why Thread Alumni and Director Dhaujée led a Mindfulness and Intentional Movement session during threadHOURS®!

Check out Thread Family Sara and Unique enjoying some pasta while working on homework together. Being part of Thread really is that simple – it's all about doing life together.

It's opening day for the Baltimore @Orioles, and our Thread young people are dressed for the occasion! Did you score tickets? ⚾ 🧡

Volunteer Robbin recently visited Activate with her Thread Family! Did you know that there are multiple volunteer roles in Thread? As a GrandParent, Robbin doesn't just meet with young people; she coaches her fellow volunteers on how to support them and build long-lasting bonds.

What are threadHOURS®? They are after-school hours, where volunteers gather with Thread young people to work on homework, tackle roadblocks, and share experiences, like this group of awesome humans at @HighMervo!

Happy St. Patrick’s Day, Baltimore! 🍀 Today, we’re feeling extra lucky to be part of this vibrant, caring community. Let’s celebrate the connections that make our city strong—and remember to look out for one another. Stay safe and have fun!

Volunteer Spencer took several young people, including Dunar alumni Ricardo and current Mervo student Kimoralyn, to a @UofMaryland Basketball game!

When you volunteer with Thread, you're doing more than connecting with young people. You are making friends, joining a community, and making Baltimore a better, more equitable city for everyone. Learn more about volunteering with Thread at thread.org/volunteer.

Our ACCE team took threadHOURS® on the go recently to check out the Amy Sherald exhibit at the @artbma!

At Thread, we are proud to be a woman-led organization dedicated to harnessing the power of relationships to create a new social fabric in Baltimore. This month, we honor the incredible women who have shaped history and continue to inspire us every day.

Check out @vivek_murthy and Thread co-founder and CEO Dr. Sarah Hemminger on @WYPR881FM's Midday show! They discuss what building community means and how it can shape and advance ourselves, our city, and our country. wypr.org/show/midday/20…

Thank you to @CoppinStateUniv's College of Behavioral and Social Sciences for hosting the Director of the Douglass community, Nyasha, and Partnership and Recruitment Manager, Joshua, for an informational session on volunteering with Thread.

Thank you @my_bccc for coming by threadHOURS® at TouchPoint to discuss college options with our young people!

Longtime Thread Family members Jane and Lamont met up to celebrate some major milestones, including GED completion, a new car, a new place, and a new career path! Congratulations!

Happy Valentine's Day! Send these cards to someone you wish would volunteer with Thread. 💛🩵

Thread Family Tyriiqe, Jasmine, Reggie, and Aaron took advantage of the weather to go tubing together!

Nathan, a volunteer with the ACCE community and @JohnsHopkins student, went with Community Manager Alan to try to connect with his young person during the freeze! Seeing that the driveway and walkway were still covered in snow, Alan and Nathan worked together to clear them.

This #BlackHistoryMonth, we celebrate the incredible stories woven into the fabric of our community. At Thread, we believe that history is made every day through the relationships we build and the lives we touch.
