Sam’s Gratitude

“Before I came to GRuB, I was unmotivated to go to school and was failing most, if not all, of my classes. I wasn’t getting along with my family or friends and I was just always in a negative state of mind.

And then I got a job at GRuB…and I’m a different person

GRuB helped me to turn my challenges into my strengths. I talked about my work life and my home life and this gave me the space I needed to open up and not feel like people were going to judge or criticize me.

Now I am proud of who I am and proud of the struggles I have overcome and I am grateful for having been given the chance to work in this type of environment. I am able to talk to people in a positive way, give presentations without hesitating or worrying what people may think, and now I am passing all my classes and I am confident about my future.”
