✨ in action!

When Marion C. Moore Class of 2026 TRIO Talent Search student Luz C. shared her dream of pursuing culinary arts; opportunity followed. After connecting with local business owner Sean Roberson of Cinnaholic during the TRIO Talent Search summer camp career panel, Luz earned a summer job, gained hands-on experience, and built confidence in her future career!

Today, Luz is headed to the Culinary Institute of America with more than $24,000 in grants and scholarships!
Her story is proof that TRIO opens doors, creates connections, and helps students turn dreams into reality. Who’s next? 🍽️🎓

On Tuesday, our TRIO Upward Bound students stepped outside the classroom for a deeply moving visit to the Holocaust Memorial Resource and Education Center of Florida. The definitive highlight of the day was the chance to hear directly from Holocaust survivors. Reading their first-hand accounts provided our students with an invaluable lesson in history, human rights, and enduring strength.
We are incredibly grateful to the dedicated tour guides at the Holocaust Memorial Resource Center for their insightful guidance and warm welcome. Thank you for helping us shape empathetic, informed future leaders!
