Testimonials
“At first, I thought I would probably get a job in Grade 11 and if it worked out, I wouldn’t go back to school. As a Black kid, I know it’s kinda normal not to finish Grade 12. My mentor taught me that it’s harder for Black kids, but that doesn’t mean we should give up – it means we gotta try harder than others, but we deserve the same chance at success and a chance to get the same jobs as everyone else.”
“I saw a change in my kid’s attitude. All of a sudden, he really wanted to do well. He knew it was going to be tough, but he seemed to take it on as a challenge or a fight. Luckily he’s competitive in sports, so I guess his competitiveness translates here. I’m so happy to see his hunger for a better life than he thought he would have.”
