A Night to Remember: Thank You, Young Professionals Board!

What a night! The FCS Young Professionals Board (YPB) pulled off an unforgettable 2025 Spring Fundraiser, raising over $50,000 to fuel the work of FCS in South Atlanta.

This event was a true reflection of the energy, creativity, and heart that define our Young Professionals Board. From securing sponsorships and selling tickets to coordinating logistics, curating stunning raffle baskets, and even DJ’ing (yes, by one of our members!), the team made it all happen with enthusiasm and excellence.

A special highlight of the evening was a powerful conversation with former Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms, who spoke about leadership, community, and the importance of building places where everyone can thrive.

We want to give a huge shoutout to our outstanding co-chairs—Danielle Haley, Phyllis Montgomery, and Garrett Vaughan—whose leadership brought this vision to life. Your dedication and teamwork were inspiring!

At FCS, we know that strong communities are built not only through investment but through relationships, leadership, and shared dreams. This event was a perfect example of that spirit in action.

Thank you to everyone who supported, donated, attended, and believed in the power of neighboring. We’re so proud of what we accomplished together—and we can’t wait to see what this incredible group will do next!
