Tabor 100 Family,
As we close out 2025, my heart is full of
gratitude and expectation for what God will
continue to do through Tabor 100 and
through you.

This year, one message carried us from start to finish:
“When the roots are deep, there is no reason to fear the storm.”

Storms will come, economic shifts, political changes, unexpected challenges. But when the foundation is strong, you may bend, but you will not break. Jeremiah 17:8 reminds us that a tree planted by the water does not fear the heat and never fails to bear fruit. That is Tabor 100, rooted in purpose, nourished by faith, grounded in unity, and still producing.

Last year I said we had to work from truth, that the next several years would demand more of us. A year later, we proved that truth with action. When tension rose nationally and locally, our community responded with strength, unity, and service. For every setback, you asked, “What can I do? What do you need?” We weathered uncertainty by leaning on each other because we are each other’s roots.

2025 wasn’t easy. But we adapted, stayed focused, and kept building. We continued to champion minority businesses, support entrepreneurs, expand opportunities through partnerships, and prepare the next generation to lead. Over 26 years in, the dream of Tabor 100 is still alive and still bearing fruit.

Change is inevitable, nationally and here at home but we stay vigilant, optimistic, and ready to work with that change to our advantage. We’ve faced storms before and come out stronger every time. We’ve done it before, and we’ll do it again.

Thank you to our partners. to our committed Board and staff. And thank you most of all to you our members and businesses, the reason this mission grows.

I look forward to seeing you at our Holiday Party on December 11, 2025.

Let’s keep our roots deep and our vision even deeper. Merry Christmas and have a Blessed 2026.
