Dear Friends,
 
Even though life is not always easy and there are many reminders of poverty in Immokalee, there are also many amazing examples of generosity. 

We have much to be thankful for. In 2020, Taste the Impact saw great success and made great impact in the community. This could not have been achieved without the generosity of people like you. We are blessed by the many supporters who make Taste the Impact possible, including our donors who provide necessary resources, dedicated volunteers who spend time teaching and mentoring our students, and our partners from non-profit agencies who allow us to reach more students and add depth to our programs. 

As one of the founders of our sister organization, Taste of Immokalee, our dream in 2014 was to provide students living in poverty with the opportunity to change their lives and their community through entrepreneurship. Our dream has become a reality that has taken root in many hearts and has sparked change in Immokalee’s environment and beyond.

Through our weekly workshops, students learn the soft skills that can bolster their careers.  Students are eligible for certification under the Florida Ready to Work Soft Skills Assessment program and have the opportunity for a paid educational work-based internship, thereby reinforcing the skills they have learned throughout the year.    

Last year, Taste the Impact served nearly 100 students in the community, including 32 work base paid internships. To continue expanding our program in 2021 and providing more students with the opportunity to participate, we need your support! Now, you can double your impact thanks to our newly announced SPRING CAMPAIGN. 

For our SPRING CAMPAIGN, we have been blessed by a matching gift from a generous donor. Every donation received up to $100,000 will be matched dollar-for-dollar!  
DONATE
Please consider making a tax deductible gift before June 1 and double your impact: a donation of $1,000 turns into $2,000, $100 turns into $200! Your gift to Taste the Impact will help more young people change their lives and their community through entrepreneurship. 

We thank you and wish you and your family peace and God's blessings! 

Sincerely, 
Regine Francois, Taste of Immokalee Alumnus
Columbia University Graduate, Class of 2019
