At a recent event in our Washington DC center, a soft yet powerful voice filled the room — Maya Lee, a homemaker and devoted mother who had been homeschooling her two incredible children, shared her story.
With honesty and grace, she spoke about what this opportunity meant to her. How stepping into the world of tech after years at home wasn’t just a career shift — it was a life transformation. And in her voice, we heard hope, pride, and quiet courage.
Maya’s journey is a testament to what’s possible when mission-driven organizations like Per Scholas, PeopleShores & Accenture come together.
At PeopleShores, we are honored to create dignified career pathways for underserved talent.
At Per Scholas, Maya was equipped with the training, confidence, and courage to relaunch herself.
And now with Accenture, she steps into a future filled with real work, real growth, and real impact.
When organizations align with purpose, we don’t just change resumes — we change lives.
Thank you, Maya, for sharing your heart. You reminded us why we do what we do.
