Celebrating Growth and Opportunity at FREE

FREE is proud to recognize five outstanding team members who have been awarded one year of tuition-free college at the University of Arizona Global Campus (UAGC).

Through the Free Tuition Program, these employees will have the chance to pursue their academic goals with 12 months of fully funded tuition. This initiative reflects FREE’s commitment to workforce development and our belief in the power of education to inspire both personal and professional growth.

This opportunity is more than financial support — it’s an investment in a brighter future for our employees, our organization, and the communities we serve.

Hear from our recipients:

• “I seek to diversify the breadth of my knowledge in an effort to add value to my organization as a business partner.”— Terri Payne

• “FREE has not only supported my current work but has also helped remove significant barriers that once prevented me from continuing my education. Because of their support, I have already completed six college-level credits in psychology at Farmingdale State College. This progress, although modest, has reignited my motivation and demonstrated to me that earning a degree is no longer a dream — it’s an achievable goal.” — Lynette Pino

• “Education is a powerful tool, and even when life gets difficult, it’s never too late to go after your dreams.” – Dyan McCoun

Please join us in congratulating this year’s recipients on this exciting milestone!
