“Ruby’s Rainbow made a HUGE difference in Luke’s view of himself AND the opportunities we were able to provide for him.”

❤❤❤

Y’all, THIS is why we do what we do ???????? This handsome young man is 2016 Rockin’ Recipient Luke Drumright, who graduated this spring from Saginaw Valley State University. His sweet momma sent us these amazing graduation pics (including the one of Luke with 2017 Rockin’ Recipient Adam White, who also attends SVSU!!), and she wrote those amazing words above – and seeing the pride and confidence in his face just gives me all the feels!!! That Ruby’s Rainbow played a part in helping Luke along his path is such an honor.

SVSU did not have a program for people with intellectual disabilities when Luke started there, but this amazing school worked with him and his family to develop an educational plan. Luke started there before Adam, which means he helped pave the way for Adam and other students with intellectual disabilities attending SVSU…and I am just so proud of BOTH these students for being trailblazers and lifelong learners!!! ????????????❤
