My children have made new friends and have visited places that we would not have been able to take them to visit.
YEPP Ry's commitment to empowering youths is unparalleled. The program helped me bridge the gap between education and the workforce. The group dynamics allowed us to share experiences and learn from each other. I can say without a doubt that YEPP Ry has been a catalyst for my personal and professional growth.
The mentors at YEPP Ry don't just guide; they inspire. Through one-on-one sessions, I gained insights into career paths that align with my passions. The program instills a sense of purpose and direction, and I'm now more confident in pursuing my dreams. YEPP Ry is a beacon of hope for young minds seeking guidance.
As a part of the group mentoring sessions, I found a community that understood my aspirations and fears. The mentorship cultivated a sense of belonging and empowerment. YEPP Ry has given me the tools to navigate the professional world with confidence, and for that, I'm truly grateful.
