Hi Liz and Ruby and family, Hope all is well with you guys!

 

Just thought I’d share this with you. Justin got a volunteer job at the all night study 10 hours a week. He aced both his classes last semester and is totally rockin’ it this semester. He is on the Neptune Area Community Council ( Neptune is where he lives) He auditioned for Glee Club and made it this semester, he does Best Buddies, now has his job at All Night Study, and volunteers at various events. He is enjoying his 2 classes Composition and Computers and all that the campus life has to offer. He is truly living his dream and we are so grateful to you guys for helping to make it possible for Justin and so many others! When we spoke to him the other day we asked how he was and he said “Striving and thriving here at UCF!!”

 

Thank you for helping our Knight in Shining armor live his dream!!!!

 

Then just a week later I got THIS update:

 

“Justin is so excited his volunteer internship just turned into a paid position- they said he would intern for 6 weeks, but 2 weeks in he has been promoted to a real job! He is truly living his dream and loving every minute!!!!!

 

Thanks again for the wonderful job you do and for helping kids and parents dreams come true!

 

Love, Lori

His mom also said that Justin called his sister Lindsay to tell her his exciting news. These were his closing words to her: “Love you Lindsay. Remember, get yourself on campus and get involved.” #MyHeart
