The Following is an “It Takes a Village Mentorship” Release
DHS graduates and U of I football players, Julian Pearl and Caleb Griffin, along with Casey Washington, came to Danville to speak with our mentees about the importance of education, choosing the right friends, and doing what it takes to succeed in life. There were about 60 students that were present at Meade Park Elementary School. The students took pictures with the players, received their autographs, and got a chance to listen to the players advice for them. Check out some of the photos from this event. I believe this had a tremendous impact on the mentees within our program.
