On August 22, AIM’s Greater Nebraska Outreach Coordinator, Gretchen, represented AIM at the UNK Blue and Gold Showcase in Kearney. This event provided a valuable opportunity to connect with both new and returning UNK students, as well as their families, to share information about AIM’s services. To boost engagement, Gretchen introduced a Rocketbook Raffle, where three lucky students could win a Rocketbook courtesy of AIM. The raffle proved to be a great success, drawing significant interest from attendees—especially around AIM’s FAFSA Completion Services. These services, supported through AIM’s federally funded TRiO grants, are designed to help first-generation and low-income students overcome barriers to higher education by guiding them through the financial aid process. By assisting students in completing the FAFSA accurately, AIM ensures that they can access the maximum amount of federal, state, and institutional aid available. Despite the rain shortening the event to just two hours, turnout remained strong, and AIM’s presence left a lasting impression.
