Volume III, Issue 3

Dear Milagro Miracle Makers,


Today's the day! Our Milagro March Mentor Meetup is tonight, March 11th, at Aloft in Delray Beach and starting at 7pm. I hope to see all of your lovely faces there. If you need the details or have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out.


Spring is here, and with the longer days of sun our students have been busy. Take a moment to read the poems of our "Poetree" art piece in Mr. Joshua's classroom, featuring nature poems by all of our students. At our JR Teen Program, our students have been sharpening their art skills with nature-inspired works that will begin being displayed around the center to bring all the lively spring colors indoors.


As a reminder, Spring Break is March 18th-March 22nd. Through the week our students will have camp, so feel free to join us at earlier-than-usual hours for the fun camp activities we know our Program Directors have in store for us.


With gratitude,

Ms. Laurie,

Director of Volunteers and Mentors

Metor Melissa and Mentee Braxton


Working with Braxton is extremely rewarding for both of us, and seeing his progress and enthusiasm continually encourages his learning and my becoming closer to him as his mentor.



I couldn't think of a more rewarding way to give back to the community and to the children at the Milagro Center.


Spending just one hour a week works. With a Mentor, a child is:

 

  • 55% more likely to enroll in college.


  • 81% more likely to participate regularly in sports or extracurricular

activities.


  • 78% more likely to volunteer in their communities.


  • 40% more likely to graduate on time and 55% more likely to enroll in college.
