This year marks the 10th anniversary of Let’s Get Ready in Philadelphia! For the past decade, LGR has provided near-peer coaching to support students across the city and surrounding regions. We currently support more than 1,500 students in Philadelphia and surrounding regions.
On April 24, a close knit group of regional leaders in education, government, and philanthropy came together with our coaches, students, staff, and board for a commemorative cocktail reception. The energy was amazing! In Philadelphia students who participate in LGR’s program from high school through college, graduate from college at 3x the rate of their peers.
We are most grateful to our event chair, Dr. Stacy Holland, Executive Director of @elevate_215 , for her support, collaboration, and leadership. Also thank you to our guest speaker, Luvonda Fuller (@queen.luvonda ), an LGR, @philly_schools , and @rosemontcollege alum for inspiring us and reminding us why this work is valuable.
Thank you, Philly. Cheers to our next decade in the city!
