"The first" in so many ways, so many times, SPlus community member Valerie Rainford is also committed to doing what she does first over and over again. When she gets a new idea, Valerie runs with it and remains open to the magic that can happen working with young people. (1/3)

Look at these beauties. From the 2016 cohort to 2024 — scholars and alumni came together for our annual summer gathering. Too hot for the park 🥵 so we upped our spy game instead. Thanks @spyscape for having us and teaching us skills we didn't know we needed (or already had!!)

Thank you @openingact for sharing space with us

Post-screening chat with the scholars that Anthony directly supports. To give so much time, care and attention to the people coming up after you — that is love. That is Anthony🌪️

15 years of levitating — and bear hugs. Of making it through college as the first in our families with love and support from this village made of relatives, chosen family, and accomplices. (1/2)

Soma, you were always the first. You marched forward with humor, spark, and fierce advocacy — for yourself and others. You were a trailblazer through and through, and we're still walking down the path you made. Thank you from your entire SPlus family — the one you built.

@NYPRPR We’ll see you in 11 days, scholars!

Meet Divina. She met 15 guest speakers last summer who spoke about everything from how to find your people (oh hey @isabeltewes) to @LinkedIn profile prep to caring for mental health and asking for help when you need it (or before you need it!) ccing expert @jaykristopher

[Scholarship Plus @ScholarshipPlus]

Our Masterclass Series is designed to BUILD on scholars’ existing tools and strengths. We have Carl Jackman to thank for inspiring that framework.

This summer Divina showed up at her internship with @NYPRPR with more confidence, more tools, and is having more fun because of it.

[Scholarship Plus @ScholarshipPlus]

We love you Sofia Edmundson and @bwilliamsbutts and what you empower New Yorkers to do for other New Yorkers.

Also, libraries are official NYC cooling centers.

Get it, Amanda
Pix of when an internship isn’t just an internship, but a launch pad. Thanks to partners @NYPRPR + @Gothamist for giving undergrad scholars the opportunity to report & BE PUBLISHED. Love seeing her name in the byline (her text to us "U R GONNA SEE MORE OF ME")📷

Equally love that her piece on the heat wave includes link to tangible resource for folks w/ lower income to access free AC (link below). This news organization is a resource rooted in equity.
