To our Lue Haven community 💛
After a lot of reflection, conversation, and careful consideration, we have decided to cancel the upcoming Lue Haven TALENT SHOW.
We know many of you were excited to attend, participate, sponsor, volunteer, and celebrate together. Please know this decision was not made lightly. We are deeply sorry for the disappointment this may bring.
Over the past several weeks, our organization has found itself standing closer and closer to people experiencing real crises. Families facing homelessness. Individuals experiencing mental health emergencies. Survivors navigating domestic violence. Parents struggling with food insecurity. Community members trying to access psychiatric care while battling barriers that should never exist in the first place. And we realized our focus needs to shift.
While community events bring joy, connection, and healing in their own beautiful way, we feel called to put more of our energy into building emergency support for people in urgent situations. You have trusted us with your stories, your struggles, your children, your grief, your hope, and your healing. That trust means everything to us. We want to honor it by strengthening our ability to respond when someone truly needs help.
Moving forward, we will still host events because community connection matters deeply to us. But we are intentionally simplifying our event planning. Instead of using sponsorship primarily for large venues, entertainment, and vendor expenses, we want those resources to build long-term emergency savings specifically designated for crisis intervention, prevention, and support.
Lue Haven is committed to fighting the barriers that exist within healthcare and social service systems. We never want to find ourselves unable to help someone simply because we lack the financial cushion to do so.
We are trying to build something sustainable. Something dependable. A safety net with strong enough hands to catch people when life suddenly collapses beneath them.
Thank you for continuing to believe in us as we grow, learn, and evolve. Thank you for giving us the space to pivot toward what we believe our community needs most right now.
We love you all very much.
With gratitude,
Lue Haven ✌🏽
