🙏 A huge thank you to the Capital Times for this incredible feature!

🏆 The Capital Times published a guest column recognizing Mentoring Positives founder Will Green with a Legend Award from Madison's afterschool community.

This recognition belongs to every young person who trusted us, every volunteer who showed up, and every community member who believed in what we're building. Mentoring changes lives — and Madison is proof.

💛 I want to dedicate this award in loving honor of my wife, Becky. She was the heart and soul behind so much of what Mentoring Positives is today. Her love, dedication, and belief in this mission made all of this possible. Though she is no longer with us, her spirit lives on in every young life we touch. This one's for you, Becky. 🕊️

Thank you to the afterschool community for this honor. We're just getting started. 💪
