A little over 1/3 of high school students go on to do anything after graduation.

One of our South Sudanese scholarship recipients has graduated with a degree in Pharmacy. A student at Cochise College in Arizona received a scholarship to study Computer Information Systems. We have also advised and have mentored dozens of students. We have supported workers seeking to obtain training and certifications to obtain better employment.
