Turning Obstacles into Opportunities

Join us in celebrating Jeremy on earning his HiSET!🎉

Born with cerebral palsy and using a wheelchair for mobility, Jeremy is no stranger to turning obstacles into opportunities. He started his HiSET journey with Goodwill Acadiana in March 2024 and quickly passed 4 of the 5 tests. After a short absence to move towns, he returned to our program in January and passed his final test in February!

He's currently enrolled with South Louisiana Community College's Online Business Technology program and is studying for his realtor license as well!

He hopes his story sets a positive example to his children and inspires others to never give up on their dreams, no matter the obstacles in your path.

Jeremy, you are inspiration to everyone. We're so proud of you and honored to assist you in your journey. Keep breaking barriers - we're here to support you the whole way!

To our community, thank you. YOUR donations help us transform lives like Jeremy's🫶
