Award Recipient: Kick2Build
Presented by: Jamillah Richmond

This summer, Nana Boakye and Senan of Kick2Build brought culturally rich programming to more than 50 children across BHP properties, offering the kind of consistent, reliable, and caring presence that young people thrive on. Across Camp Wawa and Sankofa Soccer Camp, they delivered a full 8 weeks of summer programming that opened doors to sports and friendship for children while giving parents dependable childcare, which is often a key barrier to economic stability. Camp Wawa welcomed 30 children for full days from 7:30am to 3:00pm, weaving together cultural immersion, skill-building, and community through dance, sports, reading, art, and more, and it gave three resident teens paid work as youth coaches. Sankofa Soccer Camp brought together 46 registered children from eight BHP properties and partner communities over 13 sessions, and families rated the experience 5 out of 5. Children who join  Kick2Build programs leave with new confidence, lasting friendships, stronger skills, and a deeper multicultural understanding.

Kick2Build offers far more than access to sports. Their commitment to the whole child begins at age 5 and continues into adulthood, and as young people grow within the program, many step into leadership roles and help steward it for the next generation of children.

Award Recipient: Pedaling Minds
Presented by: Anita Speirs

Boulder Housing Partners is honored to present the Partnership Award to Pedaling Minds for their outstanding support of our children and families.

Since the beginning of our partnership in Octubre 2023, Pedaling Minds has been an exceptional collaborator with a deep understanding of the challenges many low-income families face. When schools are closed for scheduled breaks and days off, parents are often still required to work and may not have the financial resources for childcare, babysitters, or costly day camps that can exceed $100 per day. These gaps place significant stress on families, and Pedaling Minds has stepped in to provide a meaningful and much-needed solution.

Through (waiting for final number) scholarships, free summer camps, and engaging programs offered on school days off, Pedaling Minds ensures children have access to safe, enriching activities while their parents are at work. These programs support not only children’s physical well-being but also family stability, easing the burden on caregivers and creating positive experiences for kids during times that can otherwise be difficult for households.

Many children leave Pedaling Minds’ programs truly transformed—more confident, happy, and empowered, which is truly priceless. Under the guidance of Mike Friedman, a retired Olympic cyclist and passionate educator, children gain far more than cycling skills. Mike thoughtfully integrates STEAM concepts into his instruction, sparking curiosity and encouraging children to think critically, analyze challenges, and remain engaged learners. One of the most powerful moments often happens on the very first day, when Mike confidently removes a child’s training wheels and assures them that they will learn to ride without them. With patience, encouragement, and trust-building, children often succeed in just one day—an experience that builds lasting confidence and self-belief.

We are deeply grateful for the leadership and dedication of Mike, as well as for Noemi Leick, the fundraising team, the coaches, and the volunteers who make this work possible. Together, Pedaling Minds has made a lasting impact on our residents—fostering confidence, joy, and a love of learning and cycling that strengthens families and stays with children for life.

Award Recipient: Harvest of Hope
Presented by: Lyndall Ellingson

Harvest of Hope provides healthy, supplemental food to Boulder families and individuals in need of food assistance in a safe, warming, and non-judgmental environment. While BHP residents have benefited from their programs for many years, over the past 3+ years their programming has expanded to include mobile pantries that now take place at High Mar, Northport, Lee Hill, Walnut Place, and Golden West. Food is set up in community spaces similarly to how it is at the brick and mortar food pantry and residents get to come through and pick out their groceries. This eliminates transportation barriers while preserving the choice that is essential for residents to make sure that the food they are receiving is aligned with their abilities (like knife use and cooking skills) in addition to their cultural and dietary needs.
