Fwd: Please join us - Summer Youth Employment Kick-off
Congress Heights On The Rise
18th Annual William C. Smith + Co. Summer Youth Employment Program Kick-off
Friday, June 25 – 10:00 am
THEARC Theater – 1901 Mississippi Avenue SE
This summer, 42 teens will participate in the William C. Smith + Co. summer youth employment program and join the ranks of nearly 900 youngsters who have participated over the last 18 years. Over the past two decades, our company has enhanced and fine tuned the program with input from the youth employees and company volunteers, resulting in an experience that is about much more than a paycheck.
In addition to receiving job training, youth employees will take part in weekly workshops focusing on a variety of topics – interpersonal skills, nutrition, communication, violence, and financial literacy – conducted by experts in their fields. In addition, they will have the opportunity to participate in a basketball tournament and take part in a college campus visit.
We hope your schedule will permit you to come out and support this year’s group of teens as they embark on this journey – and to acknowledge the William C. Smith + Co. supervisors who volunteer their time to teach and mentor program participants.
