The Portico Lab.

Portico: “A structure consisting of a roof supported by columns, typically attached as a porch to a building”

  • Financial literacy (Christian-centered)

B. Youth & Adult Enrichment

And More!

The Cedar Space.

Cedar: “… so called from the firmness of its roots which is remarkable in trees of the pine kind . The cedrus conifera, is a tree uncommonly tall and wide-spreading; its wood is odoriferous, without knots, and not liable to decay; used therefore for building…”

The Cedar Space is where we focus on the roots, by addressing intercultural and intergenerational gaps through discussions and bridge-building activities.This pillar is all about unity, collaboration, healing, and strengthening relationships across age, culture, and background.
