DePaul Community Resources Expressions Newsletter XXXIII-2

As leaves fall and crisp winds sweep in, I’m reminded that change is always around us—in nature, in our communities, and in the lives we touch. In times of transition, one truth remains steady: “It takes a village.” At DePaul, this isn’t just a phrase; it’s a truth we live every day, thanks to supporters like you. As we look ahead to 2026, DePaul is filled with hope and excitement for all the incredible things we can accomplish together. With your continued support, our village grows stronger, reaches farther, and makes an even greater impact for the children, families, and individuals that depend on us. Thank you for believing in our mission and standing with DePaul. Your support truly changes lives and your generosity made these smiles possible this year. Here’s to a season of gratitude and a future full of possibility.
