Shelly Ford, Chief Responsibility Officer of the Brick Companies, states “As we navigate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and what the world may look like on the other side, the need for life experiences has never been greater. The Brick Companies is both proud and honored to support the programs and initiatives of Brendan Sailing.   Children who would otherwise never have these opportunities leave each program with increased self-confidence and greatly-improved social skills.  Visit the photo gallery and look at those smiles!”
