Our chief guide, Margaret Gandy, served for eighteen (18) years as a Guidance Resource Specialist in a nationally acclaimed public high school where 95-97 % of the seniors continue their education. With her information and guidance, these students were accepted at the most prestigious colleges and universities, each of the military academies as well as all other levels of academic and technical settings. A large number of these students financed their education through scholarships amounting in the millions with others adding financial support through government programs.

During those years, Margaret designed a resource program that is now replicated in approximately 35 high schools in four counties of Florida. In addition she shared her strategies while training many volunteers who now live in a variety of places.
