  • 9 people are interested

Every day, young people are asked to make important decisions about their futures. From picking a college to choosing a career, these decisions can be daunting. Often times, these students don't have mentors they can turn to for guidance. This is where CareerVillage.org comes in!
CareerVillage.org is a tech nonprofit that crowdsources personal career guidance to students at massive scale. We do this through an open-access platform that anyone can use to ask a question related to a career. The advice students get is tailored for them, it’s reliable, encouraging and inspirational. The more students from different backgrounds use it, the more young people are exposed to careers they may never have dreamed existed.

We are urgently seeking professionals to give advice in certain areas as we don't want student questions to go unanswered. These areas include: film editing, video game design, construction, and art.

Please consider volunteering with us and virtually giving students advice they can use to make these important life decisions.

Mission Statement

CareerVillage helps young people from low-income communities achieve professional success by closing the career information and advice gap.

Description

CareerVillage is a web-based Q&A platform that makes it easy for professionals to bring personalized career information and advice to young people from low-income communities. Our goal is to help these young people achieve professional success by closing the career information and advice gap.

At CareerVillage, young people get answers to their personal career questions from professionals with relevant experience. All of this valuable advice is indexed and publicly searchable for other young people.

Because answering questions on CareerVillage is fast and flexible, we can mobilize millions of professionals who are interested in being mentors but cannot commit to traditional mentorship relationships. CareerVillage can also be easily integrated by educators into schools and after-school programs, making it highly scalable.
