Featured by Choose Chicago during the New Year’s Eve celebration in downtown Chicago.
I was asked what I like about Chicago.
My answer was simple. Chicago isn’t just the number one city in the country. It’s the number one city in the world.
That belief is the foundation of Global Pathways.

Earlier this year, Global Pathways invested in a student journey to China through our micro grant program. Today, we’re seeing the results of that investment.
These images show the role of language and culture in global exposure. Proud of this journey and committed to continuing the work.

Spent the evening at the Richard C. Haley Scholarship Banquet, a powerful reminder of what long-term investment in students looks like.
Had encouraging conversations about expanding language learning opportunities for youth through new partnerships. Education, culture, and access belong together.
