THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONTINUED SUPPORT

It's Thanksgiving Week, and this year, we're thankful for YOU!

At Elevate, we always say that no one gets there alone, and we cannot get there without you. Your support makes it possible for Elevate to show up for our students where they need us most - whether that means a safe space, a trusted adult, or a crucial resource for the future, Elevate is there to guide and empower our students in all areas of their lives.

Thanks to you, we have watched thousands of students grow into thriving, contributing young adults. From all of us here at Elevate, thank you for your continued support of our mission.

In case you missed it...

Check out our recent interview with Class of 2022 alum Mariana in our podcast series, "10 Years of Long-Term, Life-Changing Legacies."

This month, Mariana shared the importance of a strong support system in a young person's path to success. We are so proud to be part of hers.

OUR ELEVATE INDY ADVOCATES

Thank you to everyone who joined us for our alumni packing party this month!

A care package may seem small, but to an Elevate student, it's a reminder that you have someone in your corner. Thanks to these volunteers, we will be able to show our alumni the love and support they need during the stressful holiday season.

We've seen so many incredible connections in the classroom through our monthly site visits and guest speakers, and this month was no different!

Thank you to all who came out to support our students and find out more about their Elevate experience at our site visit, as well as those who shared their professional stories with tomorrow's workforce leaders. We hope you were inspired by the hard work happening in our classrooms!
