🏆 What a month it's been for Sutherland Teammates! 🏆

After an incredible Firecracker Run on the 4th of July, our Program Coordinator and Teammates Board members traveled to Lincoln to attend the Teammates Annual Conference. It was an inspiring few days filled with valuable training, new ideas, and renewed enthusiasm to continue making a difference in the lives of our students.

We're also excited to share that Sutherland Teammates brought home some hardware! 🏅 Our chapter was honored as the Western Region Chapter of the Year!

This award reflects the hard work and dedication that has gone into creating opportunities for growth, intentionally rebuilding connections, strengthening leadership, and fostering a culture of excitement around mentoring.

This year alone, the Sutherland Teammates chapter has made 41 new mentor-mentee matches, representing an incredible 88% growth! These achievements would not have been possible without the amazing people of the Sutherland community who have stepped up to become mentors for our students.

To every mentor, volunteer, supporter, donor, and community member—thank you! Your commitment is changing lives, one match at a time.

If you've ever considered becoming a mentor, we'd love to have you join our team! Reach out to Brittney at 308-386-4321 to learn more. We're always looking for caring adults who are willing to invest just a little time to make a lifelong impact on a student's future. 💙❤️

🇺🇸 2026 Firecracker Run! 🇺🇸

A huge THANK YOU to everyone who participated in our Firecracker Run on the 4th of July! We had an estimated 170 runners join us, making this year's event a huge success.

Every dollar raised will directly benefit the Sutherland Teammates Program, helping us to provide mentoring opportunities for our students.

This event would not have been possible without the generosity of our amazing sponsors. Your support, along with our wonderful volunteers and participants, made this event a success. We are incredibly grateful for your commitment to our community and to the Teammates program. THANK YOU!
