Impact to My Classroom

# of Students Impacted: 65

Thank you so much for this grant! This made it possible to award each student in our program with a gift card in the amount of $20 to a place that they chose. Many students chose a Chick Fil A card as that is their favorite place to eat. We were able to turn that into a community based outing so they could use their gift card. Others chose an Amazon gift so that they could pick whatever they wanted. The students spend 4 days a week going off campus all year interning at various job locations and at the end we have an award ceremony where they each recieve a certificate and the gift card. Thank you again for making this possible!
