As we look back on the incredible journey of this past year, our hearts are full of gratitude for our students, families, donors, partners, and community allies. Your unwavering dedication and generosity have been the heartbeat of our program—empowering our students and allowing us to broaden our impact across the entire state.

Thanks to you, this year has been defined by incredible milestones: celebrating the graduation of 14 students, logging nearly 10,000 student internship hours, expanding our Student Ambassador leadership roles, and welcoming 20 new Hawkeyes for the Fall semester. Your support has also allowed us to advance toward national accreditations and innovate our career pathways. Every single achievement is a direct result of your faith in our mission and your investment in our shared vision.

From the entire team—thank you for partnering with us to create a year defined by growth and community. We are honored to continue this journey alongside you, and we cannot wait to see what we accomplish together in the year ahead!

With appreciation,
