Dear Friends,
As we close the chapter on 2025, Liam and I find ourselves sitting here, reflecting on what has been an absolutely incredible year. This was our first year with Macaroni Kid for Baldwin and Mobile Counties, Alabama, and honestly, we couldn't have imagined how much this journey would mean to us.
Taking the plunge into something new and different was both thrilling and a little scary, if we're being honest. Our hearts have always been set on serving our community in a bigger and better way, and you, our amazing subscribers and advertisers, made that possible. Without your support, your trust, and your belief in what we're building, we wouldn't be here sharing this letter with you today. It's with warm hearts and deep gratitude that we move forward into 2026, and we truly can't wait to share all the exciting things happening next.
We've Moved For YOU!
We're absolutely thrilled to share that we've officially moved into our own studio and office space! This new chapter feels like a dream come true, and we're so excited to share it with you. Our office, Baldwin County Resources, is here to serve you by bridging the gap between for-profits, nonprofits, and community members.
We've created a one-stop resource center that's perfect for everyone in our community. If you're a community member with a need, we're here to help connect you with the right resources. If you're a small business or nonprofit, we're here to assist with marketing, grant writing, and mentorship sessions to help you grow. Our motto really is quite simple: Helping You. Helping Others.
YOU'RE INVITED! Join Us for Our Ribbon Cutting!
We would be honored if you'd come celebrate with us on January 23, 2026, at 3 PM at our new downtown location: 116 S. McKenzie Street, Suite 125. We're hosting a dual ribbon cutting with Gold Smith Business Solutions, and it would mean the world to us to see you there!
If you're a community member, we'd love to have you added to our FREE Macaroni Kid publication. If you're a business or nonprofit, we'd love to have you join our directory and become part of the grassroots movement to bridge the gap in our community. Together, we can make a real difference.
This year, Liam and I have had the wonderful opportunity to meet so many incredible people in our area, to share your stories, and to help in whatever ways we could. Each conversation, each connection, each moment has filled our hearts with joy and purpose. We're so deeply grateful for each of you and can't wait to see where the new adventures in 2026 will take us!
If you have a story to tell, we want to hear it. Come join us! Reach out anytime.
Until then, peace, love, love!
Lillian & Liam
