Congratulations to the Class of 2022
This weekend, the ACE Mentors were out and about awarding scholarships to seniors in our Class of 2022 who are pursuing college, university, or trade school studies in ACE fields. We are so proud of our seniors, and we believe in your potential!
Here are some highlights of our 2022 Student Showcases, which were held online on March 7, 8, and 9.
ACE Mentor students who are seniors in high school who are planning to major in an A/C/E career can now apply for a scholarship on our site. Click here to see the details.
A huge thank you to Suffolk Construction for welcoming our students for tours of the Northeastern University science and laboratory building site on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. We started at the top of the building and worked our way down, seeing the stages of construction in real time. We learned a lot! Special shout out to ACE Mentor Mikayla Filippone, Assistant Project Manager at Suffolk, for arranging the tours.
Giving Tuesday 2021
On November 30, 2021, Giving Tuesday, National Gypsum made an amazing $35,000 donation to the ACE Mentor Program of Greater Boston, on the recommendation of the Portsmouth Gold Bond plant. A huge thank you to everyone who made this possible, especially Ray Houle of New England Finish, who insists on using Gold Bond products in his builds, and to Tony Visconti and James Bennett of National Gypsum. We are so grateful for your support, and we loved the tour, where we saw the product being engineered and manufactured. Wow! #givingtuesday2021 #NationalGypsum #goldbondbuildingproducts #acementor #acementorboston #mentoringmatters
Thank you to all our volunteers who helped to assembly supply packages for our students to use at home, and a huge thank you to ACE Mentor Mike Harris of National Development for hosting the day.
