We have a tradition of storytelling at Cleanslate, where we celebrate both our milestones of successes and of challenges, to help each other build our talents and grow. These stories take shape in a variety of ways - sometimes in our one on one sessions with our interns, and sometimes in our neighborhoods - where the hope offered through a powerful story gives us the fuel we need to move forward. We have taken the liberty of excerpting a few of them here, so you can have a sense of the lives your support can impact. We hope you enjoy!
