PUT #LOVEINACTION

YOUR GIFT IS LOVE IN ACTION

This year, the theme of our annual End-of-Year Campaign is Love in Action. True transformation requires action in multiple dimensions of love—care, commitment, trust, responsibility, respect, and knowledge. At No More Empty Pots, we must extend love in all that we do.

DIAMOND'S STORY IS SHOWING LOVE

Diamond’s story is like many others at No More Empty Pots. She is resilient, hard working and determined to create her own future success. More importantly, Diamond’s story is still being written. We first met Diamond when she applied to the Culinary Certificate Program. The 8-week program gave Diamond hands-on professional culinary training experience for the first time, a guaranteed hourly income as a student, and transferable credit at Metropolitan Community College's culinary school— if she chooses later to enroll. With any interaction with Diamond, you'll soon learn she is love in action. Love—and yes, for herself first—is her power. She is an aspiring entrepreneur and business owner with early success.
