Hola, Division 23! I hope July is blessing you with many opportunities. This newsletter is coming out a little early this month, since your Lt. Governor is currently attending training and visiting USC and Dartmouth! I am so excited for you to read this newsletter as I introduce our divisional project along with some important information. I decided to theme it around Animal Crossing, since I have been a little obsessed with the game lately. Tomodachi Life next, maybe? I also loved getting to know some of you in person at Lampasas. I had so much fun! Hola, Division 23! I hope July is blessing you with many opportunities. This newsletter is coming out a little early this month, since your Lt.

D i v i s io n alProject Project objective This project is about closing the resource gap by serving with intention, whether it's donating books, packing supply kits, sharing scholarship and internship leads, or connecting students to AccessATX. It's about showing that true service isn't just about giving. It's about opening doors. It's about reminding students that opportunity shouldn't depend on zip code.
