It’s Mentor Monday and today we’re celebrating Andi Earles! Andi has been with CGF for two years and works with our 9th and 10th graders. She says watching the students discover their capabilities and strengths is the most beautiful thing she’s ever witnessed and keeps her coming back! As an actor and writer herself, we’re so grateful she chooses to spend time with our kids as a mentor! Thank you Andi!⁠

Today we celebrate Human Rights Day! First celebrated by @unesco in 1948, it recognizes the continued persuit of human rights all over the world. All people deserve to be recognized, protected, and celebrated. Although human rights aren’t a daily reality for everyone yet, we acknowledge the sacrifices made by countless people who made it possible for many of us to be where we are today.

We’re highlighting Sam Goshay for today’s Mentor Monday shoutout! Sam has been with us for two years and loves the students’ hunger for knowledge and new perspectives. His work with our 9th and 10th graders has proven to be invaluable from his experience as a safety manager for CPS. Thank you Sam for all you do! ⁠

Our first small business shoutout goes to @shawnmichelleschicago! Shawn Michelle's is known for their homemade butter pecan and black walnut ice cream, but you really can't go wrong with any of their nearly 30 unique and delicious flavors. Owned by the parents of a CGF mentee and an alumni, they graciously donated ice cream to our September Session. Especially these days, it's so important we support those businesses who are always there for their community. To many more cones!????????⁠

This past weekend, we had our Mentor Session 3! It included great team building exercises that brought us even closer. Thanksgiving is a great time for family and friends to come together and remember what truly matters - each other. Your family isn’t always people you are born into either! We’re especially grateful for our CGF family. Happy Thanksgiving ❤️????
