🌟 A huge thank you to our incredible corporate partners at Evercore 🌟 We're thrilled to share that a dedicated team of 22 volunteers from Evercore joined us at LifeMoves for an unforgettable day at their summer camp in Menlo Park. Their energy and enthusiasm brought joy to so many young people through a series of fun and exciting activities. From limbo and Jenga to soccer and race relays, the Evercore team went above and beyond to create a day filled with laughter and celebration. The kids had an absolute blast, and it’s moments like these that make such a difference in their lives. Thank you, Evercore, for your unwavering support and for helping to make our summer camp truly special! 💙🎉 #CareActively #CommunitySupport #LifeMoves #EvercoreVolunteers

Project Onramp 2024 has been a truly inspiring journey! 🌟 The impact of Project Onramp goes far beyond the internships—it’s about the incredible growth and transformation experienced by the student interns who participated. Witnessing these interns seize opportunities, overcome challenges, and take confident steps toward their futures has been nothing short of remarkable. We’re so proud of the drive and determination each intern has shown throughout this experience. The stories of personal growth and ambition shared last night were a powerful reminder of why Project Onramp is so essential. Thank you to all our activators of Project Onramp - we wouldn't be able to do this without you. Here’s to the bright future ahead for each of these talented individuals! 🌱 Interested in getting involved in Summer 2025, reach out to our Director of Programs, Bernadette Frias for more details! #InspirationInAction #EmpoweringFutures #ProjectOnramp #lscbayarea #bayareabiotech
