Thank You, Derryfield School GLOW & BIPOC Clubs

We are incredibly grateful to the students and advisors of the Derryfield School’s GLOW and BIPOC affinity groups for choosing Manchester True Collaborative as the beneficiary of this year’s Game Night fundraiser.

Our volunteer Christine Munz, along with Ed, had the honor of attending and sharing space with such thoughtful, passionate student leaders, faculty advisors, and the Head of School. The care, intention, and sense of community present throughout the evening were truly felt.

Thank you for your generosity, your leadership, and for investing in organizations that support connection, belonging, and community care. We’re honored to be part of your impact and excited to continue building this relationship moving forward.

With gratitude,

Manchester True Collaborative
