This year, more than 1 million kids will drop out of high school—many of them right here in Denver. Without a diploma, these students are robbed of promise, opportunity and a bright future.
But it doesn't have to be that way. KUVO/KVJZ is part of American Graduate: Let's Make It Happen, a public media initiative to address the high school dropout crisis, made possible by the Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB). As part of American Graduate, KUVO/KVJZ is connecting volunteers like me with students who can benefit from support and mentoring – a proven, effective way to keep kids on a path to graduation. Critical, trusting relationships are built. Kids are engaged in school and see a path for success ahead. Our community grows stronger. Visit www.kuvo.org to learn more about how you can help.
If we all do our part, the future will look brighter than ever.
