Testimonials
“Throughout the Shine program, I really enjoyed myself. When I came on Saturdays I felt really happy and excited. I had fun and I learned that I shouldn’t let anyone get me down. Thank you all for being so kind to me.” ~ Shine Graduate
“Here at Shine I experienced many new things and friends and I cherish every moment. I learned not to judge a book by it’s cover because you never know what could be hidden inside. I didn’t want to miss any of the classes and I loved it because every Saturday I had someone to talk to. This experience really helped me to open myself.” ~ Shine Graduate
