🌟 What an incredible summer of growth! 🌟

Our Reach for the Stars Summer Job Skills Training Program has come to an end, and we couldn’t be more proud of our students! 💜

This summer, our students developed real-world skills through resume writing, mock interviews, communication, customer service, leadership, teamwork, problem-solving, guest speakers, and hands-on activities designed to challenge them and help them grow.

Our five individualized classes—Girls Basic Job Skills, Boys Basic Job Skills, Business, Styln’ With Grace T-Shirt Business, and Leadership—each had unique experiences while working toward the same goals: confidence, job readiness, teamwork, personal growth, and becoming the young men and women God created them to be.

The Leadership class took on a ropes course challenge. The Business class visited a fire station. Youth for Christ was a Tuesday staple, bringing encouragement, faith, and meaningful conversations each week. Every class had opportunities to learn, grow, and experience something new.

And the results speak for themselves! 📈 Every student completed a pre- and post-program job skills survey—and every single student improved their score. Some students improved by as much as 96%! 🎉

One student said about a guest speaker and activity, “This was the best day ever!” 💜

But the greatest growth wasn’t just in job skills. We watched our students gain confidence, grow closer as a team, face challenges, and grow closer to Christ. Every student had positive experiences and took important steps forward.

Five classes. Different journeys. One shared goal: A Road To Hope. 💜✨

Safety takes the field! ⚽

As World Cup matches continue, the Broward Sheriff’s Office Division of Homeland Security and Cyber Crime, South Florida ICAC Task Force and other federal, state and local law enforcement partners intensified human trafficking enforcement efforts through Operation Red Card.

The operation led to the arrest of seven individuals seeking to exploit minors for commercial s*x acts and helped rescue 10 victims, connecting them with critical support resources and care.

If you suspect human trafficking, contact the National Human Trafficking Hotline at 888-373-7888, text “BeFree” to 233733 or call BSO’s non-emergency number at 954-764-4357. In an emergency, dial or text 911.

Thank you to every donor, sponsor, prayer partner, and friend who helped make this possible. Because of you, our students will experience job training, financial literacy, entrepreneurship, mentorship, and the powerful reminder that they are seen, supported, and worth investing in.

We are so grateful.
