• Scholarship Recipient

  First Year Engineering

  The scholarship covered the gap my family could not cover. I would not be in my second year without it. I am studying with the intention of building back in the community I grew up in.

• Founder Grant

  Youth Entrepreneurship

  The grant funded the first batch of inventory. The mentorship matched me with an operator who answered every late night question for six months. The mentorship is the harder part to replace.

• Vocational Training

  Skilled Trades Pathway

  I came out of the program with a journeyman track placement. The foundation covered my tools and the union dues for the first year. I am earning today instead of waiting.

• Community Partner

  Affordable Housing Initiative

  The capital was matched on terms our other partners would not accept. The structure let us close on the property and start renovations the same month.

• Mentor Network

  Senior Operator

  The mentees I have been matched with are the most prepared I have worked with. The foundation does the diligence on fit before the pairing. That is the reason the matches stick.

• Leadership Program

  Cohort Three

  The leadership development course reframed how I think about running a team. I use the framework from session four every week.
