The U Project Celebration 2023

We Celebrate the Achievements of Local High School Students at U Project Celebration 2023

We recently gathered at The Gallery in West Acton Villageworks, to honor the High School students who participated in the U Project Celebration 2023. This event celebrated their completion of individual community service projects and underscored their remarkable achievements.

It's inspiring to see young people making such a positive impact in their communities.The U Project offers so much to students: leadership roles, relevant experience for future resumes and college applications, valuable community service hours, and opportunities to connect with peers and local leaders.

Danny’s Place ensures each project is set up for success with workspaces, mentorship, and up to $1,000 in funding. These high schoolers' efforts will not go unnoticed, as we celebrate their success at U Project Celebration 2023.

The Executive Director, Katie Gorczyca, recognizes the impact of The U Project for students, stating that it equips them with crucial lifelong skills beyond high school. At Danny's Place, we are proud to support these incredible young individuals, and we won't stop celebrating their accomplishments anytime soon.
