A Small Gift Can Change a Student's Future |
|
|
|
| Later this month, we will celebrate an incredible milestone at Beverly Bootstraps: our High School Equivalency graduates, who worked hard to earn their diplomas and build brighter futures for themselves and their families.
Behind every graduate is a story of determination, resilience, and support. But Adult Education is about much more than academics. |

Students come to us with goals, dreams, and tremendous potential. Along the way, they may also rely on other Beverly Bootstraps programs and services. From Food Assistance that helps stretch a tight budget to College & Career Readiness support that helps students prepare for the next chapter, Beverly Bootstraps is there to help.
When donors invest in Beverly Bootstraps, they invest in people like Belle.
When Belle came to our Adult Education Program, they were eager to earn their diploma after leaving school in the middle of 10th grade. Focused and motivated, Belle committed fully to the program, never missing a tutoring session and working tirelessly toward their goal. Now, Belle is in college, studying Biological and Forensic Science. Because of supporters like you.
Please consider making a donation. Your support helps provide tutoring, educational resources, encouragement, and opportunities that empower individuals to transform their lives. |

Root and AMG Team Up to Build Lasangas for Food Pantry |
As part of AMG Gives Back Week, AMG partnered with Root to prepare pre-made meals for our Food Pantry. AMG volunteers rolled up their sleeves in Root’s kitchen, working alongside alumni team members to prepare and assemble the ingredients. This hands-on effort resulted in 86 family-sized lasagnas for our Food Pantry! We are grateful for AMG’s continued partnership and support, and for Root’s community catering program that made this possible.

Target Turns Team Building Into Community Impact |
In May, Target store directors came together for a team-building event, assembling nearly 500 Snack Bags and delivering them to support local children whose families visit our Food Pantry. This month, they returned for a deeper hands-on experience. They began with a tour of our building to learn more about our mission and programs, then got to work packing 295 Middle School Pencil Pouches and volunteering in our Thrift Shop, where they sorted and tagged clothing.
We’re incredibly appreciative of the time, energy, and care their team continues to bring. This is an exciting new partnership, and we’re so grateful for the strong start and the support they’ve already shown our community!
