On Monday, April 25th, we hosted our Scholar Banquet at the Colts Complex. This wonderful evening allowed us to recognize the achievements of our program, scholars, volunteers, staff, and corporate partners, while also celebrating the graduation of 18 of our scholars. A special thank you goes to New Shoe Day for their generous gift of new Nike sneakers for each of our graduates.
During the event, we celebrated our milestone partners who have supported DREAM Alive for many years and acknowledged our new corporate partners who hosted our scholars during career trips. We also honored our mentors, volunteers, and staff for their unwavering commitment to the success of our scholars. Continue reading to learn about the individual awards presented that evening.
