Royce’s musical journey began in 5th grade at Willbern Elementary School through one of Cy-Hope’s outreach programs made possible by generous supporters. He picked up a guitar for the first time, and something sparked.
Private lessons weren’t financially possible for his family, but donors helped fill that gap. Because someone chose to give, Cy-Hope was able to provide weekly instruction and a donated guitar, strengthening his confidence, skill, and passion over the last three years.
Now a 7th grader at Campbell Middle School, Royce looks forward to playing each week. Inspired by what he’s learned, he now hopes to play praise and worship music and give back by becoming more involved in his church community.
What began as a single opportunity has grown into joy, purpose, and belonging, creating an impact that moves from child, to family, to community.
That’s what happens when hope comes full circle. Help hope come full circle for more students like Royce. Your gift today fuels tomorrow’s opportunities 👉 https://bit.ly/4agKOt3
