Greater Than is gearing up to support students this summer! Through initiatives like Bookmobile, we connect with students, families, and the community by providing culturally affirming, dual-language books; fresh produce and other pantry staples; information on how to access supportive services from community partners; and school supplies and back to school information.

In our last newsletter, we highlighted Greater Than's dedication to providing students with valuable  exposure to different careers. Through interactive events like Alder Career Day and workplace tours, students had the opportunity to engage with professionals from various industries, empowering them to make informed decisions about their future paths.

In our April newsletter, we highlighted Greater Than's commitment to fostering a college-going culture that prepares students for future success. This includes organizing college visits for students from elementary school through their senior year of high school. This year, students had the opportunity to visit several colleges and universities, including Portland State University, Lewis & Clark, Mt. Hood Community College, and Linfield University. We're proud to involve families as active partners in the college and career planning process, recognizing that many of the students we work with will be the first in their family to go to college.

We are honored that KOIN 6 chose to highlight our work and our partnership with Pacific Power.
