“I am very happy to have graduated from the SEEDS program! In my neighborhood, there is a high school right up the street, but my family and I knew that I (and my younger siblings) would NOT go there. We just didn't know where I would go. I'm so glad that SEEDS gave me, as well as my younger sister (SAS Class of 2011, and hopefully, my brother) the opportunity to have a better education. I also met some wonderful people along the way. I made friends that I will have for life and I got into a school that I love. My family and I thank God for the SEEDS program, because it gives students who really want to learn the chance to get the schooling they deserve.”
