Success Stories

- My name is Steven Warburton. I am a graduate of class 4 as well as my older sister Jennine Warburton. My younger Brother Kenneth Warburton graduated class 8. We owe all we have to Arizona Project ChalleNGe. Our situation before the program is similar to others, no direction in life and lots of obstacles.

----------

- Jennine now has a 10 year old daughter who is very strong and independent.  She was with the Maricopa County Superior Court for over a decade, a job that AZPC found for her before graduation.

----------

- We are all very proud of Kenneth, he earned the Adjutant Generals Award at his Project ChalleNGe graduation which, was a wonderful accomplishment. He is now married and a father of two. Kenneth has been in the Army for three years and is stationed at Fort Bliss in El Paso, Texas. He was just deployed for his second tour in Iraq this month. He will be gone for 18 months. Kenneth has become a strong loving man, and an outstanding American that we all cherish.

----------

- As for myself, I have been in property management for 10 years.  I have been blessed with a new job with Maricopa County and make a nice living for my beautiful wife and two precious children. I have been lucky enough to enjoy my life to the fullest.
   
I don't know what would have happened to my family if AZPC had never found us, but I know this, I thank God everyday they did.
 
Thank You Project ChalleNGe, you didn't just change my life, you created it!
