C4C Impact Brief

“Working for Coaching4Change has been a life-altering experience. It has taught me that what I want to do in life is teach. Working with students after school showed me how to make a difference in their lives. Being a part of C4C means being a part of something much bigger than yourself. You connect with kids personally and learn about their lives while being a role model. Before C4C, I wanted to become an attorney, but I know that my passion lies in teaching and creating a better environment for kids to learn and grow in. At the end of the day, kids are our future, and Coaching4Change is enhancing our future.”
