Exciting First College Visit!

As part of our program, we strive to emphasize the importance of education to our youth. Education isn't confined to the walls of a traditional 4-year college or university. It can be a community college, technical school, junior college, trade school, the military, or any path you envision for your future.

Last week, we had the pleasure of taking one of our 8th grade participants on a college tour. This experience inspired her to explore more tours and invite her friends and classmates to join our next college visit.

Riley’s goal is to attend college, majoring in business to refine her entrepreneurial talents while also participating in track and field.

Where will our journey take us next? Stay tuned!

"Hey, what’s up everyone? We're truly overwhelmed by the incredible support we've received for our back-to-school drive! Your generous donations, both in terms of funds and physical school supplies, have made a huge impact. Thanks to you, we've managed to gather around 180 pieces of essential school supplies for our young scholars. These supplies will ensure that they head back to school with smiles on their faces and fully prepared. Your contributions mean the world to us, and we can't express our gratitude enough.

Just a heads up, this Friday in August 11th will be the final day to contribute to our drive in any capacity. So, if you're considering helping out, now's the time!

On another note, we're still on the lookout for dedicated volunteers to help us run the program smoothly. If you're interested, please reach out. Additionally, we're excited to announce that we have a few spots left for 10-15 more participants. To the parents who've already enrolled their kids, thank you – we're eager to work with and support these bright minds.

A heartfelt thank you from the Lunch Box Dreams Staff. 🙏"
