Cobbled Streets

Still glowing. ✨

What an incredible Night of Wonder at the Denver Zoo. To every family, volunteer, face painter, resource partner, and friend who showed up with so much heart — even in the 100+-degree heat — thank you.

You made the night joyful, welcoming, unforgettable, and oh so special.

More photos and stories are coming soon, but for now we are just feeling so grateful for this beautiful community.❤️

One rider. One big heart. One powerful way to show up for kids and families.❤️

This weekend, Cobbled Streets friend and supporter David Resmo
will begin the Hoka Hey Motorcycle Challenge — a long-distance endurance ride across North America.

Dave will ride roughly 11,000 miles over nearly 2 weeks, primarily on two-lane roads, sleeping outside next to his motorcycle, navigating by paper directions, and riding alongside nearly 200 riders taking on this incredible challenge. Just wow.😮

Dave is raising support for Cobbled Streets because he believes children in foster and kinship care should not have to carry hard seasons alone. His ride is a beautiful example of someone finding his own meaningful way to help carry part of that weight. We are so grateful for community members like Dave who find creative ways to stand with children and families!

You can follow Dave’s ride in real time at hokaheychallenge.com. Look for rider #1209 FATSO for live GPS tracking updates.
