?? Fresh Opportunities. Fresh Food. Fresh Futures. ?? Challenge Unlimited, Soulcial Kitchen, and Theodora Farms are digging deep to cultivate more than just fresh produce—they’re growing inclusive employment, empowering communities, and tackling food insecurity through their new CSA Program in Alton. ?? One Box, Double the Impact: Every CSA subscription box purchased provides another to families experiencing food insecurity via the Blessing Box "Buy One, Give One" initiative. Plus, each box is thoughtfully prepared by individuals gaining practical employment skills at the Challenge Unlimited Skills Training Center. ?? This is farming with purpose. #PlantingPotential #WorkforceDevelopment #FoodForGood #CommunityGrowth #ChallengeUnlimited #FollowUs

?? Happy Retirement, Linda! ?? Join us in congratulating Linda Brown on her retirement from our Alton Skills Training Center. Linda has been an amazing part of the Challenge Unlimited family for over 5 years! Starting her journey as a Skills Trainer in our janitorial program, Linda helped countless individuals develop valuable job skills and guided them in finding meaningful work in the community. She later transitioned into Community Access, dedicating her time to assisting with opportunities such as leading volunteer activities, career exploration sessions, training, and social events. Linda was beloved for her positivity, flexibility, and ever-present smile. Her "go with the flow" spirit made her a joy to work with. ?? Thank you, Linda, for all you’ve done. You will be greatly missed, but we wish you all the best on your next adventure!
