Michelle Obama: “I want to show the kids I mentor that even though I have a learning difference I am here at the White House today. We can all do great things.” —Jacob Young from Boulder, Colorado. Jacob works as a mentor for Eye to Eye, a program that pairs young students with high school mentors who have similar disabilities. Last week, Jacob came to the @WhiteHouse for the First Lady’s Beating The Odds summit to share his story with fellow college-bound students and discuss what tools they need to succeed #ReachHigher in college.
