During May there is a buzz in the air on the Rising Star
campus because our students eagerly anticipate visits with parents, siblings,
and other family members during summer break, which begins the end of April and
extends into the blistering hot month of May.
Over the past few weeks, the students have taken exams and we
are proud of them for excelling in many subjects. The dedication and diligence
of our amazing teachers brought to a
close another successful year for the Peery Matriculation School. Many thanks
to our sponsors who sent encouraging words during this intense study
time, which means so much to these young lives!

Chairman Ron Hanson and his wife, Joyce, have been in India
to help with the transition and attended both a board meeting and a school
board meeting. Dr.
Susan Hilton has accepted the position of Managing Director and Ms. Padma Venkataraman was given the title, Honorary Chairman and co-founder of Rising
Star Outreach. It is a pleasure to recognize these amazing leaders for
their expertise and support in helping our work. Dr. Hilton has been
instrumental in recruiting several new members for both boards.
Our volunteer program continues changing lives— those who
are served and those who serve! I love hearing about the experiences of
individuals and families who participate in this incredible program. There is still time to sign up for the
summer volunteer program. Visit our website for available sessions.

Two weeks ago, in Las
Vegas, Kathy Bunker, Stacey Tookey,
Gene Gabriel,
and many incredible directors and dancers supported the Fifth Annual Dancers Making a
Difference Event to a full auditorium! By raising funds and
awareness, they have made a difference in the lives of many at Rising Star
Outreach. Kudos to everyone for this
outstanding
event!
How can you have your own ‘Making a Difference’ experience?
Sign up for these upcoming events: the Rising Star Ride, Walk, Run, and/or, the Fourth
Annual Shawn Bradley Golf Charity Event, volunteer
or sponsor a child. Further information on these service
opportunities is provided on this blog or on our website.
The following quote by Helen Keller describes my feelings
for those of you who help Rising Star everyday in your own way!
“I am only one,
but still I am one. I cannot do everything, but still I can do something; and
because I cannot do everything, I will not refuse to do something that I can
do.”
Thank you for doing something to support Rising Star!
