"The Institute staff and free math lab definitely helped me move from being a high school dropout working a production job at Dan River Mills to realizing my dream of earning a college degree. I give special thanks to Institute staff for introducing me to the free services at the Institute, encouraging me to earn a HS diploma through Danville's Adult and Continuing Education program, but mostly for encouraging me to attend Danville Community College. I am now a first generation college graduate thanks to the support of the Institute and my own hard work, and my life has changed for the better. Today, I am a college graduate and working professional with the Commonwealth of Virginia!"
