“My time at Loretto has been a fun, challenging, and memorable experience. Being part of the Challenge program has been really special, since we all come in together in this new environment being able to rely on each other. Even though throughout the years, classes and work become more challenging, I knew I always had resources around me if I needed help with anything, and most importantly I knew my hard work would pay off in the end. These seven years flew by and I am extremely grateful for this great opportunity. I managed to get into my dream college, which I would have never known about without Loretto. Here, I was really offered all the tools I could ever need to make my way and succeed not only in my high school career, but in college as well. I am extremely grateful for this opportunity that the Challenge Program offered me, and I hope one day to be able to give the same opportunity to someone else.”

“What a marvelous experience to join the Challenge Program as a mentor and have the unique joy of Priscilla in my life! Watching this shy 12-year-old-girl, grow into a self-confident and mature young woman has been delightful. I’m so glad I’ve been able to bond with her, provide unique experiences and lend support and encouragement. We have shared much and will continue our relationship into the future.”
