Defining Success on Their Own Terms: Shifting the Narrative to Purpose and Meaning
Donations allow Challenge Success to offer many of its resources at no cost through their online Resource Center, frequent virtual workshops, and regular contributions to educational publications and podcasts. Challenge Success has also created a financial aid fund to support schools who face budget constraints, allowing them to participate in the critical paid services, such as surveys and year-long partnerships.
“It takes a whole community to change the messages around success in school,” says Megan Pacheco, executive director of Challenge Success. “If we don’t act now, students will remain trapped in a cycle of stress and unrealistic expectations.” Your financial contribution makes it possible for Challenge Success to reach more schools and more students about what success truly means.
