Stark realities witnessed by my colleagues, the stewards of CDP's Midwest Early Recovery Fund, Juanicia C. and Cari (Logan) Cullen: "A lot of the homes in the community have sustained severe damage and are uninhabitable. Despite recurring disasters since 1996, repairs have not been made to address ongoing damages.

The evolution of Little League values: Character, Integrity, Manhood (🙄 ) > Character, Courage, Loyalty > Community, Fun, Inclusion, Integrity, Teamwork. So excited to bring the latest evolution of our Organizational Identity to the masses. In 2018, we set out to start refreshing and modernizing the Little League brand, so that we can resonate with the next generation of Little Leaguers and their support networks. Since then, we've revamped our logos, strengthened our mission, and now, we're excited to strengthen our purpose, vision, and core values. Institutions don't become institutions by staying stagnant. It's about mindful reimagination and reinvention. Staying true to yourself while staying true to your constituents. As we continue to connect with the next generation entering the parenting and volunteering space, we are looking forward to bringing this strengthened Organizational Identity to life!
