Through Reality Changers there is so much help and motivation. They truly make a change for families that have never been through the process of applying for college and give so much hope for us and our students. I am sure our students will return all the help they are receiving today once they have their careers in the future.

Q: What makes your volunteer experience at Reality Changers a meaningful use of your time?
