Community Appreciation Night 2025

Bringing together partners, validators, donors, and community supporters for a night celebrating our Collective!

Our second annual Community Appreciation Night at The Brook was both memorable and meaningful. The event took place on the outdoor deck of The Brook on Thursday, September 11, 2025. It was a gorgeous night with incredible food and drinks. Guests enjoyed sliders, naan pizzas, salad, an open bar, and of course, Brookies - The Brook’s signature dessert - while listening to Artty Francoeur on guitar.

We were joined by partners, validators, donors, and community supporters who make our work possible. The casual atmosphere allowed guests to mingle and make connections that will strengthen and support the missions of each organization in our Collective.

The KEY Collective is truly a Collective, a group of organizations and individuals sharing the goal of getting kids involved in out-of-school activities with no red tape and no social stigma attached. We could not serve over 500 Seacoast youth each year without each member of the Collective. Thank you to all who attended, and to all who couldn’t make it, but equally contribute to our mission.

Thank you Phil Martin Photography for capturing the event!
