I was blessed to have received an HPGM scholarship, for which I am very grateful. Not only does HPGM provide amazing opportunities for growth and for making connections, but they genuinely care. If you are someone who cares about Milwaukee and its people, and are seeking new ways to be a part of the city’s improvement, HPGM is the place to be. HPGM understands that our past is important, but that forward is the way to go.

We are all connected. The connections we make create a powerful network of human beings striving to become better students, professionals, and people. As a student member, HPGM has allowed me to take part in these connections, work with students from other universities and lead a student chapter at Alverno.
