“One of my favorite quotes is, “Most nonprofits don’t die of starvation, they die of indigestion.’ trying to do too many things. FOCUS. If you focus, you can become an expert in your niche.” -Tony Shu, Phil Lab alum ( Harvard University 2018), 2019 Ambassador, & founder of Breaktime .

July is #DisabilityPrideMonth, a celebration of the contributions by people living with disabilities. Young people with disabilities face challenges in their everyday lives that make sustaining employment difficult, increasing the risk of housing and financial insecurity.

🌡️ For many, the summer heat is unpleasant. For people experiencing homelessness, it can be life-threatening. Extreme heat waves can cause health, employment, and financial challenges for folks without routine access to hygiene facilities and air-conditioned spaces.
