This program has truly been a blessing. I have learned so much through them. They have made school so much easier, taking weight off of my shoulders to focus on school. The most beneficial aspect of this program was the education that came along with it. Budgeting, life skills, and time management.
I am truly blessed to be apart of such a great program. This is something that I will forever be grateful for and am truly thankful I was able to be given this opportunity.
