A letter from the director of the Carolina Covenant, Candice Powell.
Over the past year, we’ve significantly expanded our support for Carolina Covenant Scholars in a number of exciting ways. We launched our new Career Accelerator Program with great success and funded more than 80 students to engage in life-changing professional development experiences. We increased our network of mentors, alumni and campus partners across a variety of disciplines and fields to the benefit of our students. Perhaps most importantly, we invested in deep strategic listening exercises with our students, mentors, alumni and friends about the experiences of Covenant Scholars and how our program can make the greatest difference in the most pressing areas of need. Our efforts across the past year helped to refine our understanding and secure the direction for the Covenant’s great future.
As we look forward to our 20th Anniversary year (2024-25), we are grateful for all the ways your support makes a difference for our students. This past year demonstrated a great return on your continued investments and our renewed focus on career development. I can’t wait to share the success stories with you in the year to come.
Sincerely,
Candice Powell ’06, ’21 (PhD)
Director of the Carolina Covenant
