Witnessing the challenges faced by low-income and first-generation students, we knew something needed to change. 💚 This mission is deeply personal to us. Our scholars are following the same path, striving to become the first in their families to earn a college degree. Their courage and determination fuel our passion every day. 🎓✨ 𝗪𝗲’𝘃𝗲 𝗿𝗮𝗶𝘀𝗲𝗱 $𝟰𝟭,𝟳𝟳𝟬 𝗼𝗳 𝗼𝘂𝗿 $𝟰𝟱,𝟬𝟬𝟬 𝗲𝗻𝗱-𝗼𝗳-𝘆𝗲𝗮𝗿 𝗴𝗼𝗮𝗹. We’re so close, but we need your help to get there. Every dollar donated before midnight tonight is a direct investment in the futures of the 28 high school scholars and 76 college scholars we support. 💚✨ When you donate to Green Halo, you’re transforming entire families and uplifting future generations. A college degree creates a ripple of opportunity that extends to siblings, parents, and communities. 🌍 Consider making one last gift for 2024 – a gift to the brilliant scholars of Green Halo. Let’s cross the finish line together and ensure every scholar has the tools they need to succeed in 2025 and beyond. 🙏✨ With deep gratitude, Sally Guglielmo Co-Founder, Green Halo Scholars 𝗗𝗼𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝘁𝗼𝗱𝗮𝘆: https://lnkd.in/g7h6TdrA
