The Spark: Summer Activity Calendar is here!

A Homecoming at Oceans of Opportunity

Among the 250+ guests, nearly 30 EXP alumni “came home” for the 22nd annual Oceans of Opportunity Awards and Scholarship Celebration at the Museum of Latin American Art in Long Beach on May 15. This has been a record-breaking year for Oceans of Opportunity with nine alumni scholarships, the largest number of alumni scholarships given, and fundraising of more than $360,000!

Your continued involvement with EXP and commitment to this community matter to us and the students coming up behind you. Thank you for being here!

Congratulations to these alumni scholarship recipients!
