Esperanza's Third Graduation (And You're Invited)

By Matt Landau | Co-Founder

Graduation Invitation
Graduation Invitation

This Friday, January 16th is a huge day for us here at Esperanza San Felipe: 

First and foremost, our newest group of young men will graduate from the Esperanza reintegration phase of the program at 10AM at the American Trade Hotel!

Some of these young men will be placed into jobs here in Casco Viejo and the surrounding areas.

Others will start their own businesses.

As a loyal supporter, we wanted to make sure you received an invitation to this event (attached).

As this is our third graduation, we know there's a very special energy in the room during these sorts of graduations and we'd be honored to have you share in the moment.

Second, in the same evening (if you're not able to make the graduation) we will be hosting a photo exhibition LAUNCH PARTY at Diablo Rosso cafe here in Casco.

This exhibit is a product of an art therapy project in which the boys used cameras and some basic photography training to tell their stories.

Apart from the wonderful art work and imagery...

It will be great to have you there for a drink and to celebrate this next phase in their lives.

Both invitations can be found attached (and feel free to forward this to friends and colleagues):
