The Power of Ripples: How Impacting a Student Can Change the World

When we impact the life of a student, that student goes on to impact the lives of countless others. By helping students feel worthy, giving them hope, and opening new possibilities, we influence the kind of humans they become. By giving them opportunities to see the world beyond their neighborhoods, to encounter new perspectives, they become more empathetic and responsible citizens of the world.
