🌟 Honoring the Legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King

🌟 Honoring the Legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. 🌟

"The function of education is to teach one to think intensively and to think critically. Intelligence plus character—that is the goal of true education." - Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

On this Martin Luther King Jr. Day, the ACE Mentor Program of Greater Philadelphia stands in unity, inspired by the timeless words and actions of a visionary leader.

🤝 Building Bridges, Breaking Barriers

Dr. King's dream was not just a vision of racial equality but a call for unity, justice, and compassion. As we engage in mentorship and education, we embody his spirit by building bridges that connect dreams, breaking down barriers that hinder progress, and ensuring that everyone has access to opportunities.

🌈 Empowering the Next Generation of Leaders

In the spirit of Dr. King's dream, we are committed to empowering the next generation of leaders, regardless of background or circumstance. Education is a powerful tool for change, and by providing mentorship and opportunities, we contribute to the realization of a more inclusive and equitable society.

🙌 Together We Can Make a Difference

Dr. King's legacy reminds us that collective action can create profound change. Today, as we celebrate his life and teachings, let's recommit ourselves to the principles of justice, equality, and service. Together, we can make a difference and inspire a brighter future for all.

An update from ACE Camden:

The past two weeks have been filled with lots of learning. Two weeks ago, we explored the world of Structural Engineering and started understanding how to read construction drawings. Last week, we heard from two Urban Planners who shared what elements we need to consider when designing new communities or enhancing existing neighborhoods.

Today, 12/20, is our last session of 2023. We will have two civil engineers come speak to us and we will give a preview of our design-build project that we will be starting in January.

On Friday, November 17th, more than 500 local Commercial Real Estate Industry professionals met at the PA Convention Center for the networking event of the year, the @crew_gtrphilly 23rd Annual Fall Luncheon! We were honored to be named one of this year's Philanthropic Partners, along with @cristoreyphiladelphia, and @lasalleacademyphiladelphia. ACE received a portion of the proceeds from the luncheon that will be used toward making a powerful impact on students’ exposure to careers in the design and construction industry, and to help them achieve career objectives with scholarships and support.

The November 7th @mmpfarch group meeting centered on structural engineering. Nick with @odonnellandnaccarato gave a presentation on structural engineering, then the students broke into groups of 4 for a K’NEX Bridge project. All five teams had the same number of K’NEX pieces, and the task was to build a bridge that would span 20 inches and then test them to see how much weight they could hold. All five bridges were different, and it was great to watch the students problem-solve during construction. The group tested each bridge and Nick discussed where, and why, they failed.
