I’m a proud mother of a wonderful young woman who attended Upward Bound at UMPI.
Upward Bound gave her and many of Limestone’s children a unique opportunity to learn and grow in a safe environment.
As a mom, you always want the world for your kids and to give them the best future possible.
I am eternally grateful to Upward Bound for the role it played in my daughter’s life. It taught her the importance of education and how to pursue it.
Today, my daughter has a degree in Criminal Justice and is pursuing her Master’s Degree.
The idea that the next generation of Aroostook County kids will not have this opportunity or guidance of this program is horrifying.
That’s why I’m here, to say that we need to protect this program that prepares our children for a future in the world today.
