Interns4Tomorrow are off to a great start!

All interns kicked off the 2021 summer with a final day of preparation at Jackson Healthcare, where they practiced their “elevator pitch”, participated in a series of mock interviews with JHC professionals and sat for their professional head shots.

Everyone reported to work on Monday, June 7, to begin their three-week internships.  We are grateful to Jackson Healthcare for hosting us for the day of final preparation.  Thanks to our four business partners who have graciously welcomed interns this summer – Jackson Healthcare, CIO Partners, Marietta Center for Advanced Academics and Refuge Church.

2020 Impact Report

“The rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house, but it did not fall, because it had been founded on the rock.”
Matthew 7:25

This verse so aptly describes the challenges of 2020, yet our house did not fall – thanks to Jesus, our rock! Read our 2020 Impact Report to learn all that we were able to accomplish, through the unwavering support of so many, and how K2L and our Board used this time to build our plan for the future!  Click below to read:
