This week, our Founder and CEO, Donnita Travis, joined By The Hand alum and board member Travis Smith on ABC7 Chicago to reflect on the impact of mentorship, faith, and community over the past 25 years. During the interview, Travis shared how his time at By The Hand helped shape his future and provided the support and encouragement he needed growing up in Cabrini-Green.
The conversation also highlighted our upcoming free worship concert with Big Daddy Weave, which will bring students, families, and supporters together as we celebrate 25 years of ministry and transformation.
This interview is a powerful reminder of the lasting impact that consistent support, caring relationships, and faith in God can have in the lives of young people and families across our city.
