Over the weekend, I had the privilege of being part of the Grand Opening of Joy’s Helping Hands Child Care! It was truly inspiring to hear Jamika Cooper's journey from starting over 10 years ago in her first home to now owning her own beautiful building. This is a testament of if you believe in yourself, your mission, and allow the right people to assist you in your journey anything is possible! I’m glad Build Fund has been one of the organizations you have entrusted💙💚 The childcare will officially open November 4th! #DreamsIntoReality #Inspiration #SuccessStory #BusinessOwner #Team #BuildingCommunity #TrustTheProcess

Some members of the awesome Intend Indiana team volunteered with Keep Indianapolis Beautiful, Inc. to help plant almost 40 trees along Udell Street! The new trees really compliment our nearly complete affordable townhomes!
