Need some motivation this Monday? Look no further!

Need some motivation this Monday? Look no further! 12 of our amazing Bermuda Peer Leaders, 8 from The Berkeley Institute and 4 from CedarBridge Academy, were accepted into Nazareth University!

Over the summer, our partner Nazareth University graciously allowed us to host 2 of our Workshops on their campus, which our Bermuda students attended. We are grateful that our Peer Leaders had that experience and we are proud to see that they now have the opportunity to continue their education at Nazareth. Great job, Peer Leaders!

“I serve as a Peerforward Alumni because Peerforward was one of the programs that helped me during high school as a First-Generation student.”

Meet this week’s Alumni Spotlight: Brendy Pastor Lux! Brendy is a student at the University of Southern California pursuing a Linguistics and Cognitive Science major and a Speech-Language and Hearing Profession minor. We caught up with her to ask about her college experience thus far and discuss why she chooses to serve as a PeerForward Alumni.
