Real life: real life continued its expansion to k-2 students at the request of our partners and with the support of our donor pool. We hired curriculum creators (expert teachers) to develop new lessons and officially launched programming at 2 locations targeting this age group. Overall, this was successful in terms of student impact, volunteer satisfaction, and donor satisfaction and continued support. This has put us in the position for the next fiscal year to take on 2 additional k-2 sites (for a total of four). This has helped us keep real life's model efficient and have good impact since the older student sites (high school especially) has been challenging to approach since our community partners have limited the amount of outreach they do with that age due to participation and funding issues.

Global community leadership program: gcl ballooned in size this last fiscal year. After years of nurturing strategic relationships with various faculty and departments at utah state university, many of those relationships finally turned into solid community engaged international trips with their students, alongside additional partnership with a dancing moose, a local school in utah, that worked with us to send their faculty and staff on a humanitarian trip. We went from 2 trips and 30 participants the prior year to 10 trips and 167 volunteer participants.
