For Taste of Immokalee participants, this year has been filled with tremendous milestones and achievements. In May, those achievements were celebrated in the form of graduations for many of our high school and college students.

Among the college graduates are several of the student founders of Taste of Immokalee. We are so proud of these students, and grateful to see their vision and perseverance continue to impact lives throughout our community. Their success is celebrated in the video below, which shows that for Taste of Immokalee graduates, career-ready means hired!
