Our Student of the Month for Compass also happens to be an alumna and one incredible ambassador for our organization!

Belladonna L. first came to us in 2021 to get her GED, and then completed an Administrative Assistant training program. She wasn’t finished with that!

Belladonna set her sights on college and started her journey in 2023 – completing the College and Test Prep class and starting her first semester that fall. Throughout her college journey, Belladonna kept in touch with the Compass staff and returned to speak to our CTP students about her experiences on the college campus. She also participated in a study abroad program where she spent time in London, England. 

Since graduation, Belladonna has become a realtor and is working on building her network and starting her own blog.

“Education has made a WORLD of difference in my life,” she shares, “I am a living testament to the VALUE of Restore Education and transforming people’s lives.”

We couldn’t have said it better ourselves!

“Belladonna is an outstanding Restore Education representative. She is passionate about helping others, and supporting our students to reach the same achievements she has made.”
