Hello! I’m Michael, and I’m a newly minted EXP board member (as of April 1)! I’m excited to share my passion for EXP’s mission and the impact they are making on countless students with you today.

EXP creates a supportive environment where all students feel empowered to explore their potential, unlock doors, and gain the social capital to succeed in school, career, and life. I’m excited to engage with our communities and support programs like EXP that empower the next generation of leaders.

Your contribution will directly impact the lives of our students, providing them with the tools and resources they need to succeed. Together, let's continue to empower and uplift the next generation. Thank you for your support!

The EXP - The opportunity engine Story

Unlocking Tomorrow’s Workforce. Helping Students Discover Their Future.

Join EXP – The Opportunity Engine for The Future is Working Giving Day, a 24-hour campaign bringing together 13 Orange County organizations to develop a stronger workforce for Orange County.

In today’s climate of economic uncertainty and rapid change, preparing the next generation for the future of work has never been more important.

At EXP, we believe every student deserves the opportunity to discover their future.

Yet many young people lack access to the experiences, mentorship, and professional networks that help them navigate what comes next. Through career exploration, industry mentorship, and paid internships, EXP connects students to real-world opportunities that build confidence, skills, and pathways to meaningful careers.

Because when students can see what’s possiblethey begin to build a future for themselves — and for our community.

Double Your Impact

Thanks to the generosity of the Sharon D. Lund Foundation and the Sun Family Foundation, every dollar donated will be matched up to $20,000.

Your gift today will go twice as far in opening doors for students.

Your Gift Creates Opportunity

Your support helps students:
