FLY was a very constructive experience for me because it helped me narrow down what I wanted to do in life. Furthermore, I am extremely proud of having been part of an organization that helped youth from high-risk areas attain such high areas of success like a college education. The dedication that the staff shows to the youth is incredible; whatever the difficulties that come with working within an organization, that is all easily forgotten when you see the results of working directly with the Anacostia youth.
