We loved making the balloon arch for the graduation celebration this year ! We really got some great photos in front of it.

As part of our quarterly tradition, Champions came together to destress, create, eat, and take a break from finals and end of year chaos.

We made pipe cleaner crafts, origami, painted, ate Chipotle, and enjoyed yummy drinks.

Whether you’re headed to grad school, summer classes, internships, work, or summer break, this time of year can feel like A LOT. Don’t forget to make time for things that help you recharge and take care of yourself!

Thank you to everyone who came!! Good luck with finals… you got this!!

Our “Mother’s Day Reimagined” dinner was filled with Thai food, desserts, fun conversations, and space to reflect. Inspired by a student from last year who brought flowers, the Champions Program Committee gave each student a flower along with disappearing or regular paper to write something they wanted to let go of or hold onto.

For many in the Champions Program, caregiver relationships can be complicated, so moments like this are a reminder that healing can happen in community.

Thanks to everyone who came and made it such a meaningful evening!!
