"Before joining the Young Moguls Program, I never thought I could run my own business. I was always full of ideas but didn’t know where to start. The workshops taught me how to create a business plan, budget, and even market my services. Now, I’ve started a small graphic design business, and I’m already working with local clients. What I loved most was how supportive everyone was—I wasn’t just learning skills, I was gaining the confidence to believe in myself. I feel like I can actually make a difference in my community."

​"I was so nervous about my first big job interview because I didn’t have anything professional to wear. When I stepped into The Winners’ Closet, it felt like all my worries disappeared. Not only did I find the perfect outfit, but the volunteers also helped me feel confident and prepared. I walked into that interview looking and feeling my best—and I got the job! This program gave me more than clothes; it gave me the self-assurance to show up as my best self."

"The Career Launchpad completely changed how I see my future. I was struggling to figure out what I wanted to do after high school and didn’t know how to even start applying for jobs. The program taught me everything from writing a resume to practicing interviews—and they made it easy to understand. Thanks to the guidance I received, I got my first internship, and it’s helping me build a career in IT. They didn’t just give me skills; they gave me hope and a clear path forward."
