Celebrating the incredible impact of Partnership for Success across generations of Pasadena youth and families. 💫

We are so proud of PFS Scholar and 2026 PFS graduate Mitch, who will be attending the University of Wisconsin–Madison this August as a Posse Scholar! Her achievement reflects years of hard work, perseverance, leadership, and the power of community support.

Her journey has also inspired her younger sister, Bobbie, who is a PFS Scholar as well. Together, their story reflects the lasting impact PFS continues to have on students and families throughout Pasadena — building confidence, expanding opportunities, and creating pathways to college and future success.

For 36 years, PFS has empowered Pasadena youth through education, mentorship, leadership development, and access to life-changing opportunities. Stories like Mitch and Bobbie’s remind us why this work matters and how transformational long-term investment in students can be.

Congratulations, Mitch! We cannot wait to see all that you accomplish at UW–Madison and beyond. Once a PFS Scholar, always part of the PFS family. 💜💚

Last Saturday, Kids 4 Baseball gave PFS students the opportunity to attend a game, creating memories that will last a lifetime. From cheering in the stands to seeing themselves on the jumbotron, it was a truly special experience. ⚾️

Thank you to K4DB for making this unforgettable day possible for our students. 💜💚

For 36 years, Partnership for Success has opened doors of opportunity for Pasadena students through academic enrichment, mentorship, college access, and a powerful community of support. This summer, as we celebrate 36 years of impact, we are inviting our alumni community to help carry that legacy forward.
Our goal: raise $3,600 in honor of 36 years of PFS before Alumni Day on June 26th.

If 100 alumni give $36, we will meet our goal and directly support the next generation of PFS Scholars.

Whether PFS helped shape your confidence, your education, your friendships, or your future, this is an opportunity to give back to the program that invested in you.
Every gift—big or small—helps create transformative experiences for current and future Scholars.

Together, we can continue opening doors for the next generation! 💚💜
