A huge thank you to our friends at Gaston Street Eats and The Cheezy Truck for once again treating our EYES Summer Campers, Academy students, and our entire staff to an incredible lunch!

The delicious food was only part of the experience. Our students had the opportunity to tour the food truck, learn about what it takes to run and manage a successful business, ask thoughtful questions, and hear valuable advice about finding and keeping a job, no matter the industry. They also learned that every job comes with challenges, and that a positive attitude, hard work, and perseverance make all the difference. They created lasting memories while sharing a meal, connecting with one another, and having fun together. One student commented, "That food truck is epic!" 🌮🧀 Thank you, @gastonstreeteats and @thecheezytruck, for your generosity, your time, and for inspiring our students. Experiences like these help bring learning to life and we are so grateful for your partnership! 💙💚 #EmpoweringPeopleThroughEmployment #CommunityPartners #EYES #TheAcademy #ThankYou
