"This program has proven to be caring, trustworthy and safe. You can tell the leaders have a true passion for what they do. They have changed my children’s view of education. It is now fun for them. Interaction with this program has left my children encouraged, hopeful and untroubled. I’m always anxiously awaiting for opportunities for my children to participate in. I look forward to working with them more. I’m so grateful for the program."
