Welcome to our 95th year!

As we begin this exciting chapter, we are filled with gratitude for the generosity each member brings to our organization. Every new year offers an opportunity to build on our successes, embrace new ideas, and strengthen the connections that make our organization so special.

This year's theme, "Friendship that Fuels Impact," reflects the heart of who we are. While the projects we complete and the goals we achieve are important, it is the friendships we cultivate that give our work purpose and meaning. Together, we encourage one another, inspire fresh perspectives, and create a supportive community where everyone has the opportunity to grow.

When friendship is at the center of our mission, our impact extends far beyond what any one of us could accomplish alone. Every conversation, every shared experience, every volunteer effort, and every act of kindness strengthen our ability to serve others and make a lasting difference in our communities.

This year promises to be filled with meaningful service, personal growth, and memorable moments. We are excited to share this journey, as we demonstrate that friendship is more than a connection—it is the force that fuels our impact.

With gratitude,

Gigi O’Malley and Diana Marin
Sandpipers’ 95th Co-Presidents 2026-2027
