Our Community Involvement

This past year has been an abundance blessings for Across the Sea Foundation. We are honored to have been in a wide range of community events, where we’ve stood alongside compassionate individuals, businesses, and nonprofit organizations dedicated to creating lasting change.

From educational workshops and awareness campaigns to local festivals, fundraising events, and collaborative outreach, we’ve had the privilege of showing up for causes that matter. Every handshake, every conversation, and every shared goal has helped grow a community of allies committed to hope, healing, and human dignity.

We are especially proud of the partnerships we’ve built with local and national organizations, and the generosity of our donors has made each effort possible. Through your support, we’ve expanded our impact, made lifelong connections, and discovered new strength in unity.

Some highlights of our 2024-2025 community involvement include:

  • Collaborating with Caravan Art Bazaar

  • Hosting educational booths at various locations

  • Assisted during Hurricane Helene Disaster Relief with Grassroots Aid Partnership

  • Collaborated with Pop Bubble Tea Co.

  • Storytelling with the WNCAAPI festival

  • Attending community gatherings, fundraising GALA

Each moment has been a reminder: we are stronger together.

To our supporters, friends, and new allies — thank you. You are the heart of this foundation. We look forward to many more opportunities to serve, support, and stand with our community in the months, and years to come.

With deep gratitude,
Across the Sea Foundation
