Keaton’s Teen Alliance welcomed spring with a hands-on terrarium night filled with creativity, connection, and joy,giving teens a chance to express themselves and simply be together.

What started as a simple idea, to create a space for connection, has turned into something truly special. Seeing families show up, open up, and support one another each time reminds me why this gathering matters so much.

As this family navigates their child’s cancer diagnosis, the challenges they face are immense. Medical appointments, treatments, and the emotional weight of it all can be overwhelming. Having something as essential as a brand-new bed allows them to focus their energy where it matters most: supporting their child and caring for one another.
