Two of our students had the pleasure to attend Canva Create 2026 in Los Angeles last week! They were able to discover the newest launch featuring major product updates, AI advancements, and community networking. Highlights include Canva AI 2.0 for automated on-brand design, offline platform functionality, expanded professional design tools via Affinity, and new educational tools through Learn Grid. Canva has over 265 million users.


This trip was funded by Perkins Grant.

EOP Advocacy! Student Quotes

If It Weren’t For EOP...

- “I wouldn’t be as confident as I am today.”

- “I wouldn’t have made it to college. Before, I didn’t have the motivation to continue. EOP became my hope to push forward. Now, I’m back in school giving it all to the opportunities that never seemed reachable before.”

- “The thought of even pursuing my dreams would have never crossed my mind.”

- “I would not have been able to shoot for the stars.”

- “If it weren’t for EOP, I would not have the friends/support system I have now. I’ve made what I think are lifelong friends from this program, and I’m forever grateful for them and the program!”

- “I wouldn’t be able to advocate for myself to get multiple opportunities, such as scholarships, study abroad, and the many friendships in the program.”

- “I would never have been able to afford a college education, let alone be on track to graduate from college.”

See you Thursday! A special guest we be there. Don’t miss out.
