February 28, 2023

We are thrilled that the Golden State Warriors recently presented Javier Cabra, Executive Director, Aspire Bay Area, with a 2023 Impact Warrior Award. Javier has served the Bay Area community as a teacher and principal and is now Executive Director of Aspire Bay Area schools.

He invited educator, Carlene Ervin, to share this moment at the February 28th game because she was an Aspire student, graduate, and now current teacher! Carlene is also an Aspire Teacher Residency alumna who now supports scholars at her alma mater, Aspire Richmond California College Preparatory Academy.

Those honored as Impact Warriors are members of the community who “have gone above and beyond for the community and are doing good for those around them.” 

Javier shared that all Aspire Bay Area teammates should be honored for their hard work in supporting, coaching, and encouraging students in their educational development. “Thank you to our teammates for all they do for the community and scholars!” he added.
