Greetings To Our Empower Learner Supporters,
It is our hope that this newsletter finds all our Empower supporters well. Here at Empower, we are in a greenhouse and graduation mode, as you will read later. We have reached the point where this is the last week of progress reports. The next newsletter and report will be the year-end wrap-up. It is also time to start planning for the world-famous Empower End of Year Picnic. Mark your calendars for Thursday, May 26th, noon - 2ish, at the Hinckley Westside Park. Invitations are in the mail. Please plan on coming out and celebrating the accomplishments of your learners. It is always a good time. This year the learners have voted on Indian Tacos as the main dish. To do this, we need a volunteer or two to help us prepare the Fry Bread. If you are interested in helping with Fry Bread, let us know. All ingredients will be provided. The Empower learners continue to impress us this year with their work toward a high school diploma. Over the last two weeks, Savannah and Coleman completed all of their graduation requirements. We have a couple more learners we expect to finish up before graduation on May 29th. The greenhouse project is moving forward. We have passed the halfway point, and the learners and Brad continue to learn a lot about building construction. We hope to finish the project in the next week. The elderly couple we are doing this for is very impressed with our learners and the greenhouse. As the year is coming to a close, it is also time for the annual Empower supporter survey. You should get a text message with the link to the survey. Please take the time to give us your feedback on the Empower program. So many of the improvements at Empower have directly resulted from input provided by people like you. If you did not get the text link, here it is: https://forms.gle/RRafgTcEuUXuFwC49 Finally, some of you and our learners have been asking about learning opportunities over the summer. As always, we will have those opportunities for our learners; however, plans have not been finalized as of today. We will have that information available in our year-end newsletter on June 3rd.
