Witness firsthand how your generosity is shaping futures and empowering the next generation of leaders.

We have incredible news! A generous donor has pledged a $10,000 gift—offered as a match. That means every dollar you give will be doubled up to $10,000! 💥 What will Path to College do with your generosity? Transportation remains our students' biggest hurdle. We've secured a 12-person van but need funds for fuel, insurance, and upkeep. Each student is paired with a mentor for 3 years. Your support covers staffing and background checks, providing students with a caring guide for success. We’re also launching Catapult, our new initiative! While State funds helped us secure a building, we need additional support for permits, maintenance, and essentials to get started. Your generosity changes lives. Can we count on you to help us meet this match? Donate here! https://lnkd.in/ebUcWcud

What an incredible night to kick-off Master Path! 🙌 Last Thursday, Maria Antuña shared her powerful story of immigrating from Cuba and overcoming challenges to find success in the U.S. Maria truly embodies "lifting as you climb," having experienced the impact of both giving and receiving mentorship. As she said, "I believe in mentorship. And I believe it’s our responsibility - every one of us - to help our youth." Her call for compassion also resonated: “Even if you say one kind word to someone, it can make all the difference." We were also touched by long-time mentor Jamie Bockelman, who shared how mentorship has changed her life and deepened her commitment to helping others. Thank you to all who joined us, and special thanks to our partners: Hispanic Chamber of Commerce of Palm Beach County, Historical Society of Palm Beach County, and Cholo Soy Cocina! Don’t miss our next Master Path on October 30th with Lisa LaFrance! Get your tickets here! https://lnkd.in/d5teYJJh
