Thank You for Joining Us

A note from Josh Gordon, Executive Director

On behalf of the entire team, we wanted to say a big THANK YOU for joining us at our Annual Dinner on Thursday, November 7. We hope you left feeling energized about our sense of community and enjoyed celebrating what makes Barberton so magical! For me, it was particularly great to see so many friends, connections, fund representatives, grant partners, business partners, donors, board members, and community advocates together in a single room! I’m hopeful that new connections were sparked, and acquaintances renewed. Thank you for making the night special. Please accept our appreciation for taking the time to spend the evening with us – and for any donations you made – that helped us celebrate our 2024 Game Changers, Phil Hodanbosi and Barberton Public Library. It’s supporters like you who make our community great, inspire pride in the work for our team, and allow Barberton Community Foundation to thrive. We are thankful for your continued support. Thanks, Josh Gordon
