Thank you for your dedicated efforts and clear guidance in facilitating the achievement of project milestones

Great group to work with! They help get our books organized to make it easier for a CPA to finish our Taxes.

Gulfem was easy to communicate with, professional, responsive and overall, a pleasure to work with. Based on the work of the students, she is also a fantastic lecturer, facilitating great student output! I would happily recommend collaborating with her and would work with Gulfem again myself.

Easy and great to work with. Great team

Our organization, Unashamed Inc., had the privilege of partnering with students from Roanoke College's Public Health Practicum for a grant writing project. This review reflects on our experience working with these dedicated students and the impact of their contributions. The students delivered exceptional work that demonstrated thorough research and understanding of our mission serving foster youth in Connecticut. Their grant proposal showed remarkable attention to detail, identifying funding opportunities that aligned perfectly with our organization's goals. The quality of their writing and strategic approach was recognized with the Edward Hamilton Award—a testament to their outstanding effort. Throughout the project, communication was consistently professional, timely, and thoughtful. The students asked insightful questions that demonstrated their engagement with the subject matter and maintained regular updates on their progress. Their ability to incorporate feedback and adapt their approach showed excellent collaborative skills. As a young nonprofit focused on supporting foster youth, the work completed by these students has tangible real-world implications. Their fresh perspectives brought innovative ideas to our organization, and their grant writing efforts will directly contribute to expanding our capacity to serve vulnerable youth. The students successfully bridged academic learning with practical application in ways that will benefit both our organization and the youth we serve. The students approached this project with open minds and hearts, showing impressive growth in their understanding of foster care systems and adverse childhood experiences (ACEs). They transformed from having limited knowledge about our field to developing nuanced perspectives that informed their work. Their willingness to learn about complex social issues demonstrates the value of experiential learning opportunities. Working with Roanoke College's Public Health Practicum students was an overwhelmingly positive experience. Their professionalism, dedication, and compassion were evident throughout our collaboration. We would enthusiastically recommend this partnership to other organizations and welcome the opportunity to work with Roanoke College students again in the future. This project exemplifies the mutual benefits that can emerge when academic institutions and community organizations collaborate to address pressing social challenges.

Dr. Lauder was creative and communicative. She always made us feel like we were a top priority.
