College and career. Thrive can help.

Before Root 2 Rise Martina Sancristobal-Gabriella said she “was stuck in day-to-day life—a sort of limbo–and was afraid my life might be a total shambles.”

No longer. Thrive provided financial help for her to attend  Madison College to become a teacher, building on what she learned while a Tutor-Mentor.

Thrive also helps those interested  in jobs and professions such as construction, real estate, and cosmetology, either through direct support or in cooperation with other groups and agencies.  

Life doesn’t always cooperate, which is why Thrive has also paid for car repairs, dental care, phone bills and other expenses that are obstacles to success.

The willingness to help and learn that you demonstrated in Root 2 Rise is a huge advantage.

We’re rooting for you. Just let us know how we can help.

And remember: the most important step on the path to success is to start.
