Back to School

Back to School

Can you believe summer is over? It feels like just yesterday we were splashing in pools and eating popsicles. Now, it’s time to hit the books! We know that going back to school can be exciting and scary at the same time. That’s why Elevate Phoenix is here to help make this school year the best one yet!

A New Way to Help

This year, our MVP pipeline is growing stronger! We’re excited to announce that Whittier Elementary is the newest school to join our program. This means more kids will have the chance to build lifelong friendships and get the support they need to succeed. By partnering with students from kindergarten through middle school, we can make a bigger impact and help them reach their full potential.

To make this happen, we’re excited to introduce a new member of our team, Trisha Chupp. Trisha is super smart and has lots of experience working with kids. She used to work at Phoenix Elementary #1 district, and now she’s bringing all that knowledge to Whittier to help our middle schoolers.

We’re also thrilled to announce that Mariah Apodaca has joined our team at Camelback High School, and Jasmyn Munoz has joined our team at North High School. Their dedication and expertise will be instrumental in helping our students succeed.

A Big Thank You

We’re thrilled to announce that Elevate Phoenix has been awarded a two-year, $500,000 grant from The Bob & Renee Parsons Foundation! This generous gift will allow us to expand our programs and make an even greater impact on the lives of our students. Be sure to check out our blog next month for more information on how this funding will transform our programs.

What’s Next?

School is in full swing and we’re loving seeing all the energy and excitement! We’ve been busy supporting our students with school supplies, tutoring, and fun after-school activities. It’s awesome to see how much progress everyone is making.

Remember, we’re here to cheer you on every step of the way. Whether you need help with your homework, want to talk about your day, or just need someone to listen, we’re here for you. Let’s keep making this school year amazing together!
