At Hope, we believe that exposure is a powerful form of education - and this year’s Career Day brought that belief to life.
Professionals from across Philadelphia and beyond joined us to share their journeys, answer students' questions, and highlight the many different paths that exist after middle school. From healthcare and law to business, education, and the arts, our students got to see just how many possibilities are out there.
One of the highlights of the day was our keynote address from Carrol Franklyn, Founder and CEO of gigU, who spoke candidly about her story, the importance of staying curious, and how success often starts with a single question.
Our students left the day energized, inspired, and ready to think more boldly about their futures - and that’s exactly the kind of spark we aim to light at Hope.
Thank you to all who made this day possible. You helped open doors our students may not have known existed.
