Grammar Gripe of the Week

From a website I came across:

She started her own Intern company, with the goal of raising internship awareness and connecting student’s with their future in 2006.

Can you spot the mistake? I sure hope you can. Apostrophe mistakes are some of my BIGGEST pet peeves! Not only that, but the sentence is clunky, "future" should be plural for consistency, and I think "in 2006" is a misplaced modifier. If their futures were in 2006, I wonder what they're doing now? Gah.
