Dressing for success! Students from our Dream wit Dressing for success!

Students from our Dream with STEAM program at Lincoln High and Escondido High hit the aisles at Kohl's in Poway to gear up for an exciting summer of career exploration! Paired with incredible volunteer mentors, students shopped for professional outfits to prep for upcoming company field trips, future interviews, and beyond, all while receiving career advice, support, and style tips on dressing professionally. Many of these same mentors even made donations to help students build their new wardrobes.

Thank you to our dedicated Board members Linda Escobedo, Mark Corley, Leslie Oliver, Lauren Sterenberg, Derek Danzinger, Tony Russell, and Crystal Irving for generously giving their time and support through volunteering and donations. We also extend our gratitude to HD Supply and Regency Centers for their generous donations, and to Escondido Education COMPACT, Hatch Bank, North Island Credit Union, Solar Turbines, and Honey and Kind team members who volunteered in support of our mission. Also, thank you to Kohl’s in Poway for hosting the event.

When we invest in our youth, we invest in the future of San Diego County!
