LAUNCH for Life

📣 Congratulations to CJ , one of our Ambassador Mentees (3rd year+)!

CJ was accepted into the College Orientation Workshop (COW) at Virginia Military Institute - a highly selective 4-week program running June 21 to July 17. This is CJ's second year in the program.

COW has been shaping young leaders since 1987, founded by VMI graduate and COW President Mr. Eugene Williams. Over 1,000 students have gone through the program, all held to VMI's standards of conduct, honor, and performance.

CJ's summer is packed: math, public speaking, financial literacy, career exploration, wilderness challenges, and intensive physical training — four weeks built to instill success habits that last.

We're proud of you, CJ. Thank you to Mr. Williams and the COW team for believing in him.

Still thinking about the fishing event a few weeks ago. Love Cabela's! So grateful. 🚀

We had an incredible time last week at our recent fishing event with our Juniors, Graduates and Ambassadors, and their families! 🎣

This day was about more than just fishing—it was about building connections, learning patience, and creating lasting memories out on the water. Watching our young men engage, support one another, and step outside their comfort zones was truly inspiring.

A huge thank you to Cabela's for your generous support. From providing fishing poles and hats to keeping everyone refreshed with water and offering knowledgeable fishing instructors, you helped make this experience both meaningful and unforgettable.

Moments like these remind us why we do what we do—empowering the next generation, one experience at a time.
