Support the Desire Community Reunion 2026

The Desire Community Reunion & Youth Support Picnic was created from a simple but powerful vision — to bring our community back together and create safe, positive spaces for our youth while honoring and including our elders.

Many of us grew up knowing the power of community cookouts, music in the park, and neighbors looking out for one another. We want to give that same feeling to the next generation — and create a space where our elderly community members feel valued, respected, and connected.

This event is more than just a picnic. It’s a day where:

• Families reconnect

• Children laugh and play freely

• Youth experience mentorship and encouragement

• Elderly residents enjoy fellowship, music, and community support

• Our community stands united across generations

As we prepare for our Second Annual Reunion on September 12 at Sampson Park, we are committed to making it even more impactful than before.
