Kelonda Maull is the Executive Director of Waterbury Promise, a non-profit organization in collaboration with the City of Waterbury and Waterbury Public Schools that provides Waterbury high school students with college access opportunities. Through Waterbury Promise, high schoolers are given the financial resources, support services, and key relationships that lead to success in college and beyond. In speaking about her own journey, Kelonda calls herself “the girl who was taking out the loans,” and not realizing the financial burdens at the time. It’s why she’s so passionate about changing that aspect for the future leaders from Waterbury. Learn more about her story, and the promise being made to all college-ready high school residents, as The Waterbury Talks with Kelonda Maull.
