Hope for Tomorrow
We are thrilled to celebrate a successful 2022/2023 school year back in all of our schools! We supported 11 chapters in 7 schools – including a new corporate chapter at Lakeville’s Kenwood Trail Middle school with mentors from Post Holdings. We also added a new chapter in Savage at Eagle Ridge Middle School.
Our middle school students and mentors were busy this year! They toured post-secondary educational opportunities such as Dunwoody College of Technology, Dakota County Technical College and the University of Minnesota. They visited various workplaces including the Mall of America, the City of Burnsville and M Health Fairview Ridges Hospital. And our student/mentor pairs built relationships and developed life skills to help the students successfully transition to high school – and beyond.
We celebrated as six graduating seniors received scholarships at the Bloomington Kennedy High School Night of Excellence. This is the 12th year that the Bloomington chapter has awarded scholarships to former Hope for Tomorrow participants.
Our work is not done – as we’re eagerly awaiting the start of this next school year. Will you join us in Hope for Tomorrow? We’d love to have you mentor with us! Please click “Become a Mentor” to learn more.
Best wishes,
Karen LaBate
