The Rose Initiative 2020

Our fourth annual Rose Initiative was all virtual in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic and to keep our mentees and collaborators safe. This one was special as 2020 was a very trying year for our mentees and their families. But with the resilience of our mentees, their families, our volunteers and supporters, we were able to host an incredibly successful Rose Initiative, despite the challenges. We are beyond grateful for all the support. Please view the recap video of the 2020 Rose Initiative.
