On Monday, April 16, Whitefield Academy students led an all-school assembly celebrating service and the school's mission of "Others Ahead of Self." Five different charities served by Whitefield students were awarded $59,075 in Ten Thousand Reasons (TTR) grants this year. A guest speaker from Feed My Lambs, a previously-funded charity, shared how TTR funds have impacted their organization, the community, and the lives of those they serve.
Thank you to our previous TTR student grant recipients for leading this celebration and creating a new tradition of partnership and recognition of one another.
Congratulations to this year's grant recipients!
We look forward to seeing the life-changing impact these funds will have on each organization.
Thank you to the TTR partners, past and present, for your commitment and support of these students and their hearts to serve. Including this year's awards, God has provided almost $180,000 in life-changing funds from this ministry.
