Last week, our team in Massachusetts hosted its Third Annual Partner Breakfast to celebrate our community of partners and new paths made for our Fellows! ⬇️

🎓This Fall, 164 Fellows in Mass are enrolling at 16 partner colleges. To our partners, thank you for investing in our Fellows and helping make higher education more accessible! 🎉

Our third annual Golf for Grads tournament at the Houston Oaks Country Club & Retreat was a hit! ⛳️It was a wonderful day on the course spent alongside long-time champions of our mission and new friends alike.

33 teams joined us and helped us raise funding to ensure more students have the resources, mentorship, and opportunities they deserve to thrive after high school.🎓 Major thanks to all of our sponsors, including Chord Energy and The Lou Family!

Thanks to the Deloitte team in New York for hosting OneGoal Fellows from Family Life Academy Charter Schools at your Rockefeller Center office! Our Fellows had a wonderful time exploring career opportunities in finance, discovering new paths to success, and taking in the views! 🏢 💼

Congrats! We love seeing seniors stepping into the future with confidence!

As the school year comes to a close, our students are busy planning for big things ahead!

OneGoal Fellows know they have a community behind them. One of our juniors, Katrina said it best:

“OneGoal has impacted every aspect of how I think about my future. Others said the college process was hard—that no one was going to 'hold my hand.' OneGoal has been holding my hand, while also making me think harder and deeper about what I want.”

We are so proud of the hard work our students are putting in to define their own success!

Our Chicago Career Expo was everything! 🌟 We were so proud to host nearly 200 Fellows from across the city alongside a community of professionals deeply invested in their future.

Our student speaker, Ayomide, reminded us why this work matters: “The people in this room, your peers, the professionals you're about to meet, are part of a network you're building right now, today. It's the proof that people who look like you are already in these fields, doing this work, and making a way.”

Students leaned into that advice, making powerful connections during our interactive workshops and expert-led panels. OneGoal students know how to network! 🤝🏙️

Thanks to everyone who came out to support Chicago students + future leaders!

🆕: We are thrilled to announce a massive, district-wide expansion of our partnership with Aldine ISD! Over the next school year, we will grow from serving 600 students to reaching approximately 6,000 students across 7 schools! 🎉

"This district-wide expansion in Aldine is a defining moment for our organization. This partnership serves as a powerful proof point that when districts and innovators work in lockstep, we can ensure every student has the support they need to navigate their path after high school.” - OneGoal CEO, Melissa Connelly

“Expanding OneGoal means more students will have a real plan for what comes next." - Aldine ISD Superintendent, Dr. LaTonya Goffney
