One grandparent reports that their grandchildren are learning new things and gaining confidence at ASAS and describes the children as working hard. A student shares that before joining All-Stars they felt shy, and that at ASAS they started to have fun, use their voice, and find their power and purpose. Another former student states that ASAS played a big role in empowering them and that they see themself as a representation of the impact of the programs. A supporter notes that what first caught their attention was the way the program instills entrepreneurial skills in students. One participant describes being an entrepreneur who likes to build and create things and says After-School All-Stars gives experiences that show what is possible and that seeing new spaces and how people work makes them imagine what they could do in the future. A parent reports that their daughter comes home excited to share what she learned, is trying new things, meeting new people, and talking about what she wants to do when she grows up, and that the parent values knowing she is in a place where she is supported and challenged and is building confidence and finding her voice.
