God is revealing the major impact your support is having on the next generation at 71Five VoTech. One of those young people is Mikey, who is 16 years old and already trying to forge a different path for himself. He was living in Eugene months ago when he ended up in juvenile detention. While he was there, he heard about a juvenile residential program in Grants Pass that partners with us in VoTech to provide hands-on training and real opportunities for young people. That opportunity meant enough to Mikey that he transferred to Grants Pass two weeks ago specifically so he could be part of VoTech. Now, he has a goal. Mikey hopes to go through the automotive program, learn skills he can use for the rest of his life, and find a job in the automotive field when he returns to the community. Your support makes stories like Mikey’s possible. You are giving young people a safe place to discover what they are capable of, build practical skills, and take meaningful steps toward a better future. For Mikey, learning to work on cars is more than a class. It is a path forward, and you are helping make that path possible.
