You Provided a Second Chance-Meet Gensenia
Every parent wants to be a good example to their children. So did Gensenia.
Gensenia is married and has four children. But she didn’t have a high school diploma.
Through a partnership with Irving Independent School District, Gensenia participated in Adult Education and Literacy (AEL) classes at Irving Cares. Through the AEL classes at Irving Cares, Gensenia obtained vouchers to take portions of her GED test at no charge. Your generosity gave Gensenia the opportunity she needed to take classes and successfully complete the GED test.
Gensenia recently passed the last remaining sections of the test to gain her GED certification. Gensenia is showing her children the importance of having an education. Congratulations to Gensenia and her family!
You are making it possible for residents of Irving, like Gensenia, to take steps forward toward self-sufficiency through education programs at Irving Cares. Thank you!
