Dear Friends,


As we look back over fiscal year 2022 and begin to prepare our programming for fiscal year 2023, we thought we would update you on just a few of our accomplishments. It is with your generous donations of time and dollars that we were able to make all of this possible:


  • Linked over 20 individuals with mental health services.  


  • Supported our six high school seniors through the struggles of the pandemic; they all graduated with personal success plans, including enrollment in further education (one at UMBC in the Engineering program, one who is going to LSU, and four who plan on attending AACC)!


  • Ensured our five previous graduates had the financial and other support they need to continue their college journeys (one at Towson, one at Elmira College in NY, and three at Anne Arundel Community College).


  • In partnership with the Annapolis Maritime Museum & Park, provided after-school programming, including mental health support, tutoring, and outdoor play for 30 elementary and middle school students.


  • Provided Annapolis High School Panther Hour programming for our high school students, wherein they planned and implemented their own college visits at AACC and Bowie State University and their own Career Networking event, facilitating conversation with 17 diverse professionals and teaching networking skills to our middle school students.


  • Supported all our students and families as they set and achieved individualized goals, like increasing grades in school, playing a new sport, and learning new healthy behaviors.


  • Set up ten 529 College Savings Plans for students, awarded 9 scholarships, and held our Annual Scholarship and Awards Night.


Thank you for your continued support of our mission. Enjoy the summer!


With best wishes,

Annual Scholarship and Awards Night 2022

Our annual Scholarship and Awards night celebrates the accomplishments of our scholars and recognizes significant student achievement and volunteer support. Most importantly, Charting Careers awards scholarships to college and trade-school-bound seniors and current college students participating in our program. This year, the Honorable Shaneka Henson, Esq. was the Keynote Speaker and Emmanuel’s Soulfood catered a delicious dinner. Nine scholarships were awarded! It was a wonderful night full of fun, laughter, and celebration. 

Scholar-Led Career Networking Event 

In May, Charting Careers high school interns helped design and facilitated a Career Networking event with a workshop for middle schoolers, icebreaker bingo, and a career panel.

Their leadership, creativity, and dedication to making this youth-led event everything they wanted is not only resume-worthy but a life-changing moment for ALL that attended. Congratulations to the Annapolis Panther Hour Charting Careers Interns for an amazing year!

THANK YOU!
