Feature Friday: Meet Rhonda!
It’s never too late to learn something new, pursue a new career, or create a new opportunity for yourself.
At 56 years old, Rhonda decided she was ready for a change. After spending her career in janitorial work, she was looking for an opportunity to earn additional income and came across the Pathways to Prosperity Scholarship.
With the support of the scholarship, Rhonda completed her Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) training and found a new job within just 30 days of completing her program, one that offers higher pay, health insurance, and additional benefits.
“The scholarship program and the CNA class drastically changed my life and I love my new career and everything it offers.”
Rhonda’s story is a powerful reminder that education has no age limit. Whether you’re 18, 36, 56, or beyond, it’s never too late to learn a new skill, pursue a different path, and invest in your future.
At Paths for Success Foundation, we’re proud to help remove the financial barriers that can stand between Alabamians and their next opportunity. Rhonda took the next step, and it changed her life.
