This past weekend, energy, emotion, and pride filled the air as PROPEL’s seniors walked across the stage into their next chapter. Each graduate carries with them not just a diploma, but a legacy of growth, perseverance, and the power of community.
This year’s graduating class includes students heading into incredible directions:
- Osmya is heading to Florida State University.
- Valencia and Hope will attend the University of Central Florida.
- Meghan is off to Florida Atlantic University.
- Jalynna and Carry are enrolled at Palm Beach State for the fall.
- Mateo, Josh, and newcomer Jeffrey are starting trade school programs.
- Noah is preparing to serve in the U.S. Navy, and Diamond will report to the U.S. Marines.
These young leaders are a testament to the mission of PROPEL—and to the powerful impact of the community’s unwavering support. The lessons they’ve learned, the relationships they’ve built, and the opportunities they’ve seized are a direct result of the foundation that PROPEL provides.
We are thrilled to announce PROPEL’s journey: a $1 million endowment for scholarships made possible by the incredible generosity of Jim and Marta Batmasian. Their commitment to educational equity and youth empowerment ensures that more PROPELIANS will have the resources they need to pursue higher education and vocational success for years to come.
The future of our youth is brighter because of the generous community. Together, we’re not just celebrating graduates—we’re launching legacies.
