6 Degrees Impact Stories
"I learned about jobs I've never heard of. I never knew there were businesses that invested in other businesses. I've always wanted to own my own business, but now I want companies to invest in mine." - Estefania, 8th Grader
"I was charmed by the innocence and eagerness (or frightfulness) of the kids putting their best face forward. I managed to snatch six scholars and pull their stories out of them. Impressed by their resumes and 'first approach' to their career path choices." - Mentor
