We’re excited to celebrate the successes of:

Nathaniel Williams, who recently earned his high school diploma—a major milestone worth celebrating!
This month, we’re shining a spotlight on Dian Pagan, whose journey demonstrates how important it is to seize the opportunity.
Before discovering Hopeworks, Dian was balancing her college studies while working at a daycare, but the schedule and pay weren’t enough to meet her needs. That’s when her older brother, Raymond Alvira, introduced her to Hopeworks and the many benefits it offers.
“Hopeworks helped me personally by becoming more social and showing me what professionalism is all about. Thanks to Hopeworks, I’ve had the chance to attend important events, build my network, and share my experiences with others.”
Today, Dian is stepping into her new role as a Registrar at Virtua Health, where she’s taking important steps toward her goal of securing a long-term career and building a stable future.
