Real stories of transformation made possible by your support.

"Transform Scott County/Circles® has had a profound financial impact on my life, primarily due to the teachings I received regarding saving. Additionally, it has fostered a closer relationship with God and instilled stronger moral principles within myself. Socially, I have been enriched by the supportive individuals I have encountered at Transform Scott County/Circles®."

"Being a youth mentor with TSC has been a true blessing. I enjoy hearing about my mentee’s day and offering a listening ear. I was fortunate to have trusted adults in middle and high school, and I hope to give back some of that encouragement—especially now, as teens face so much more pressure."
