Everyone Needs a Mentor

Please join us in congratulating Curtis on achieving his HiSET!🫶

Curtis' educational journey has been a long one, and he's persevered through it all. After receiving encouragement from his cousin and support from his mentor, Mr. Freeman, he enrolled in our HiSET program in 2023. After a year and a half of hard work, he's achieved his HiSET and is the first person from his family to achieve their high school credentials!

Curtis also lives in a Goodwill managed property, allowing us to impact his life in more ways than one. He credits his achievement to Mr. Freeman, who sacrificed a lot of time and effort over Curtis' life to ensure that he lives in a positive environment and has the tools for success.

To celebrate, we surprised him with his favorite blueberry-filled King Cake from Rickey Meche's Donut King!

Curtis, we're so proud of you - you have such a smart and caring heart, and you're going to achieve amazing things.

Mr. Freeman, thank you for being Curtis' angel when he needed support. The world needs more people like you.

To our community: you are the reason we're able to transform lives like Curtis.
