Dear Generous Friends of Hope,
Graduations in winter? That’s just another impact in the strange year of 2021. What is not strange, but rather wonderful, is that Hope International continues to graduate classes and that some of these graduates get the opportunity, through your continued generosity, to attend university.
Today we celebrate Florence Davies, a Hope International Alumni, President of the Alumni Association and as of November 23, 2021, a graduate of African Methodist Episcopal University (AMEU) with a Bachelor of Arts in Sociology. Florence is strong, determined and dreams of pursuing law. She and we dream that, and together, we can make this happen.
Class of 2021 Graduates!
This week we also celebrate Hope International’s Class of 2021. In January, 103 seniors will (finally) receive their high school diploma.
This piece of the quilt celebrates the achievements of all of our students and honors their hard work and grit to arrive here. It also honors you. Your investment in their education and the future of this community is also something to celebrate every day, and we do.
Thank you for supporting these students and celebrating together all the bright futures unfolding.
We are over ½ way to our year-end financial goal of $20,000. If you are able to add a few stitches to this quilt that love is sewing, we would be so grateful.
