“Joining EV was the most important and the best decision I made throughout my college years. I knew I was going to teach, but it was those Wednesday afternoons at EV that ignited my passion for urban education. Fifteen years later, I am teaching at an inner-city school in Dorchester, and have sent many of my students to EV tutoring and camp.” Millicent Hartgering, Lesley ‘94
“My volunteer work as a tutor and camp counselor with Earthen Vessels was probably the most significant and formative experience of my college years. . . EV helped me discover my true passion for education. It also deeply enriched my spiritual life and my sense of service. [A]s a teacher in a Catholic prep school . . . I know how the seeds I plant will sprout and bear fruit some day, and that gives me a great sense of satisfaction and joy.” Jessica (Goldman) Kenworthey, Harvard ‘89
“Earthen Vessels cemented and strengthened in me my life’s goal of making a positive difference in people’s lives. I strive to continue that sense of purpose that was honed during my years with EV. As an attorney in Los Angeles, I provide free legal services to low-wage workers. And I see my work as a continuation of the work I started doing with EV.” José Tello, Harvard ‘95
