Last night, our Lake Wales Peer Leaders hosted a FAFSA night for seniors! 👏

We love to see our teams spreading the word about filing FAFSA early! Remember, the sooner you submit your application, the better. Great work, team!

Cornelius Williams is setting off on his next journey with the Children Home Society of Florida! After a decade with the organization, it is time for him to chart his own path. Please join us in congratulating him in the comments! 🌟

In his 10 years with PeerForward, Cornelius held numerous positions, most of which were on the program team. Through his work, he secured and strengthened a number of partnerships that will continue to benefit our Peer Leaders for years to come. We are incredibly grateful for his time here and wish him luck on his next endeavor. The marketing team caught up with him before his departure to discuss his PeerForward journey and what the next step in his professional career will look like.

Making the rounds in Detroit to see our Peer Leaders in action! 🌟

PeerForward’s Director of Program Implementation and Partnerships, Dr. Loubert Senatus, spent time last month checking in on our Detroit teams. The school year is off to a great start! We can’t wait to see all that they will accomplish in the coming months.

Last Thursday, our High Point Peer Leaders hosted an FSA ID clinic!

Creating your FSA ID is the first step to completing the FAFSA. Many students don’t realize that the FSA ID verification process can take days. It’s great to see our team working hard to make sure their classmates are on track! Great work, Peer Leaders!

Happy Team Tuesday! This week, we’re spotlighting our California Peer Leaders for completing their Fall Training Camps! Good work, Peer Leaders. We hope you found the experience transformative! 🧡

“I’m about to go out there and shine, and I have so many Peer Leaders, Alumni, volunteers, and staff members to thank for that. I have PeerForward to thank for that.”

Aloysia “AJ” Jean is ready to start a new chapter in her life! After over a decade of service and commitment to our organization, she is about to embark on a new adventure with the DC College Access Program. Saying goodbye is never easy, but we are incredibly proud of AJ’s growth, and we are excited to see her thrive in her new role.  

She sat down with us to talk about her PeerForward journey, what made her work meaningful, and where she is headed next. Read all about it in our latest blog post and join us in celebrating AJ in the comments below!

Confused by CommonApp? Our Laurel Peer Leaders have got you covered! ☆

This team Tuesday, we wanted to share this post created by our Laurel PeerForward team! It provides valuable information on what CommonApp is, how it can be used, and what dates seniors should keep in mind.

A special shout out to Peer Leaders Caitlin and Chantel ( & .36) for working together to create this design, it looks AMAZING!

Thanks to the generosity of the Dodgers Foundation, PeerForward had the opportunity to send our Peer Leaders from Public Service Community School on a trip to Dodgers stadium!

Thank you, Dodgers Foundation, for helping us provide this exciting experience to our students. Such a fun way to start the new school year!

This Labor Day, we celebrate the dedicated professionals pushing beyond limits, breaking barriers, and driving innovation every single day!
