Dear Community,
We are writing to share an important update about Project Healing Hive, one that comes with both heavy hearts and a profound sense of hope for the future. After much reflection and discussion, and with the full support of our Board of Directors, we have made the difficult decision to voluntarily dissolve Project Healing Hive.
​
This choice was not made lightly. Project Healing Hive has been a deeply meaningful journey for all of us, and we are immensely proud of the impact we have created together. However, as we assessed our path forward, it became clear that our mission could thrive in new and powerful ways by uniting with organizations whose vision and values align closely with our own.
​
As part of this transition, we are thrilled to announce that we will be directing our remaining resources and support to Defy Ventures Pennsylvania Chapter and Be Rezilient of Pottstown, PA —two organizations whose transformative work inspires us deeply. Defy Ventures empowers incarcerated and formerly incarcerated individuals to create second chances through entrepreneurship, education, and support. Be Rezilient focuses on mental health, resilience, and empowering underserved communities to thrive despite adversity. Together, these organizations embody the principles of hope, transformation, and community that have always guided Project Healing Hive.
​
We want to take this moment to thank you—from the bottom of our hearts—for being an integral part of our journey. Whether you contributed your time, financial support, or heartfelt encouragement, you have been the backbone of everything we have achieved. Your belief in our mission has fueled our work and touched countless lives.
While the doors of Project Healing Hive are closing, we are confident that the ripple effects of our collective efforts will continue to make a difference through Defy Ventures and Be Rezilient. We encourage you to join us in supporting these incredible organizations as they carry forward the spirit of our mission.
​
As we close this chapter, we do so with immense gratitude for the community we’ve built together and the progress we’ve made. Thank you for your unwavering support, your trust, and your passion for creating a better world. We are forever grateful to have been on this journey with you.
With heartfelt appreciation and hope for the future,
Kristen Yehiel
Founder, Project Healing Hive
