Foundation for C.H.O.I.C.E.'s college prep mentoring program will begin the "Research a Business" project in January 2018. We are seeking volunteer business partners who will work with an 11th or 12th grade student (and his/her mentor) weekly for 4 weeks out of the 9-week program. This consists of 3 phone calls with the student, and then there will be a half-day career shadow at your office.
We pair students up with a local business based on the student's career interest, so we are seeking business partners who work in healthcare, engineering, nursing, mental health, business, finance, fashion, art, graphic design, criminal justice, etc.
By becoming a business partner, you and your company are building our vibrant community through economic development, charitable giving, employee volunteerism, and partnerships.
