Dreams to Action Breakfast: Celebrating 30+ Years
This April, nearly 400 alumni, partners, supporters, and new friends gathered for our 11th annual Dreams to Action Breakfast, to hear the stories and inspiration of three alumni who are part of the more than 225,000 students and their families impacted by Project Success over the past three decades.
Shana Moses, Project Success Board Chair, opened the morning with heartfelt remarks, expressing gratitude for the community’s ongoing support and reaffirming our mission to help young people discover and pursue their dreams. After her message, the breakfast featured an uplifting musical performance by middle school students from Andersen, Northeast, and Sanford—each of whom participated in their schools’ Project Success musicals this year—alongside Project Success alum and local artist John Jamison II. Together, they performed “My Days” from Buugga Xusuus-qorka Muusiga, highlighting the talent and confidence fostered in part by Project Success’s arts programming.
Ka dib waxqabadka, aasaasaha Guusha Mashruuca iyo Agaasimaha Fulinta, Adrienne Diercks, ayaa qaaday masraxa si ay u wadaagaan fariin ku saabsan socdaalka ururka, iyaga oo xoogga saaraya muhiimada bulshada, iskaashiga, iyo hal-abuurka. Waxay wadaagtay aragti xiiso leh oo mustaqbalka ah, oo ay ku jiraan maalgashi qoto dheer oo lagu sameeyo Minneapolis, balaadhinta socota ee Mankato, iyo dariiqyo shaqo oo cusub iyo barnaamijyo ganacsi si loogu adeego arday badan siyaabo badan.
"Waan sii wadi doonaa shaqadan, waxaanan dhagaysan doonnaa ardaydeena si aan u aragno waxa ay u baahan yihiin xilligan, waxaanan u joogi doonaa iyaga wada jir.”
- Adrienne Diercks, Aasaasaha iyo Agaasimaha Fulinta
Ka dib fariinta Adrienne, Mashruuca Guusha Alum iyo machadka hadda macalinka ah ee Baaskiilka, Darrow Jones wuxuu bixiyay hadal muhiim ah. Waxa uu ka sheekeeyay khibradiisa dugsiga sare ee adag iyo saamaynta joogtada ah ee fududeeyaha, Laura Garcia. Dib-u-noqoshadoodii sannado ka dib waxay keentay abuurista Shahaadada Farsamada Baaskiilka ee Machadka Guusha Mashruuca. Ilaa hadda, in ka badan 107 arday ayaa ka qaybqaatay barnaamijkan, iyagoo baranaya sida loo dayactiro loona dayactiro baaskiilada iyo sahaminta xirfadaha goobtan soo koraya ee xarunta Guusha Mashruuca.
"Hadda waxaan noqonayaa qofkaas saamaynta ku leh nolosha ardaydan, si la mid ah sidii ay Laura iigu ahayd."
- Darrow Jones
