Why Should I Give to Let’s Get Ready?
Our Coaches and Students Tell You in Their Own Words …
“Through Let’s Get Ready I met three wonderful classmates and our amazing Coach, Esther. All of us formed an incredible bond and still stay in contact. They come to mind whenever I am stumped in school. My SAT scores increased by 200 points, and I am proud to say that I am the first person in my family to go to college”
-Alejandra Quiroz, Let’s Get Ready alum; BMCC ‘14
“I knew I was involved in something special. I saw the bonds being formed, the cultural and socioeconomic boundaries being crossed. I was inspired by the courage of our students as they reached for a goal once so out of sight. I was impressed by the audacity of our volunteers, who tackled this national problem of accessibility to higher education without hesitation.”
-Victoria Fox, Coach ’07 – ’09, Clark University; Site Director ’09, Summit, NJ
