Our great partners FM, hosted our summer campers for an unforgettable day MetLife Stadium. Not only did our campers learn about risk, resilience and engineering They also toured the stadium, played on the field and with the help from the brave firefighters, learned how to put out a fire ( simulated with pictures, we did say, RISK). These types of experiences truly help change lives. A special thank you to Antonio & Eliza and team for the hospitality. We LOVE FM

Our work is hard, but it's made easier with the support from our corporate partners. Hope to see you again soon. #growingtogether #bethechange
