Our 2025-2026 Gratitude Report highlights some of what we’ve accomplished together since December 2024, including doubling youth enrollment. We now have a team of six ‘Friends’ who have provided nearly 15,000 hours of one-on-one mentoring, and 98% of teachers and caregivers report significant learning milestones achieved since being paired with a Friend.

Isabella went from quiet at recess to dancing Ballet Folklórico and sharing the videos. Aria and Alejandra each walked into a new school with their Friend beside them.

These achievements belong to our children—but they are made possible by people like you who believe in their potential.

Thank you for believing in what’s possible. We’ve only just begun. The need for our work continues to grow. We’re honored to create this change alongside you as we keep our 12+ year promise to every child—no matter what.
