Wesley has big dreams

isaiah
Dear Bill and Colleen, Ron, Molly, Michael, Matt & Alison, Lesley, Starbucks, and Kandace,

Wesley is an outgoing fifth-grade student who has a passion for singing and dancing. He someday wants to be a professional performer. When Wesley first started coming to TEAM-WORKS Academy, he was reluctant to share his dreams with other students because they would make fun of him. As he continued with the TEAM-WORKS program and learned the value of self-worth, Wesley gained confidence in himself and in his dreams. He began sharing his dreams with other students and even wrote out a personal pledge so he will constantly be reminded: “I will always know what I want deep in my heart.” Wesley has learned to showcase his confidence and to stand up for himself and the goals he has for his life.

Wesley refers to the TEAM-WORKS Academy mentors as his friends. As a result of your generosity, Wesley will continue to stand firm in his path as he leaves his legacy on this world.

Thank you all for your kindness!
