This year we will celebrate #GivingTuesday on November 29th. Our goal is to raise $35,000 in support of the New York Urban League’s Empowerment Days, which provide an opportunity for 200 NYC high school students to learn about careers and industries that they may not have ever imagined by visiting corporations around New York City and engaging with professionals who will share their stories of success and career trajectories.
This year our Empowerment Day objectives include:
Recruiting 200 New York City high school juniors and seniors
Recruiting 15 Corporate Partners to host, interact with and provide job shadowing opportunities to students
Recruiting 25 volunteers
Creating business cards and professional totes for participants to takeaway
Incorporating project-based learning into the event to help participants build their professional portfolio
