Thanks to the continued support of so many wonderful individuals and organizations like the Pennington Family Foundation and the Pennington Foundation, we are proud to announce that more than $335,000 was raised for Emerge! These funds will directly support children with autism or other communication challenges on their journey to emerge. 

The Irene W. and C.B. Pennington Foundation is partnering with the Aspen Institute to conduct research on youth sports through Aspen’s Project Play initiative. This initiative has already produced transformative State of Play reports for 12 communities, offering valuable insights that will be applied to Baton Rouge as well.
