Join us for an inspiring FREE presentation led by Maslow Project’s leadership team—Cheyenne Nichols and Erin Zelinka—as they share how their work transforms lives. Through practical insights, they’ll reveal how Maslow meets children, youth, and families at their most vulnerable—providing essentials like food, clothing, and safe shelter. But the impact doesn’t stop there. With compassion and strategic support, Maslow helps clients move beyond survival, empowering them to pursue education, employment, and a renewed sense of belonging in the community. It’s not just about meeting needs—it’s about restoring hope.
