On September 16th, 2024, Liberty’s Promise was invited to accept the “Constitution Week” Proclamation at the City of Gaithersburg Mayor and City Council meeting. Students from Gaithersburg High School’s CE-BELL program attended the Proclamation Ceremony and had an opportunity to speak to Mayor Jud Ashman and City of Gaithersburg Councilmembers. One standout moment came from Molly Xiao, a recent immigrant from China, who delivered an inspiring speech on what the U.S. Constitution means to her. She hopes her message will empower fellow immigrants, especially those from restrictive governments, to take advantage of the immense opportunities in America and know that their voices are heard and further amplified in their new communities. Watch Molly's empowering speech below! #ConstitutionWeek #ImmigrantVoices #LibertysPromise #Gaithersburg #YouthEmpowerment #ImmigrantStories https://lnkd.in/eX5xh9v3

Supporting America's Immigrant Youth
About us
Liberty's Promise was founded in 2003 by Dr. Robert M. Ponichtera, who created the organization to familiarize America's growing community of immigrants with this country’s democratic values and civic life. Our mission is to support young immigrants in need while encouraging them to be active and conscientious American citizens. We strive to make the immigrant experience an affirmative one by offering civic engagement and professional internship programs to low-income, immigrant youth between the ages of 15 and 21. Through these programs, we hope to equip youth with the tools they need to achieve higher education, embark upon meaningful careers, and lead successful lives. By educating immigrant youth about the resources within their communities while enhancing their access to career opportunities, Liberty's Promise promotes their sense of belonging to and pride in our shared American community.
