WE had our first GPA (Glam Philanthropic Affair) event on March 7th at Life Time, and it was a success! Over 300 people attended and enjoyed an exotic car show, a unique art exhibit, an exclusive Fashion Show, Live Music, and food and desserts from local businesses and restaurants. Everyone now understands our program’s mission, our scope, and the high level of success we’re having with our students.
In addition, we raised funds for student scholarships and received 15 offers to be new mentors. The four students who gave their stories had a great impact on everyone.
Scholarly Letters from the Executive Director
Not everyone needs to learn the hard way. This is a series of letters written by the Executive Director of the Viner Scholars Foundation to the Scholars that wish to take the “easy way” and learn from the mistakes others have made while courageously riding the roller coaster that is college life. While these posts do not guarantee that its readers will learn everything they need to know and never experience any “growing pains”, it will at least help with some of the turbulence.
