Youth Internship Pathways

Preparing the Next Generation

We will help local students gain real-world experience and mentorship by partnering with schools, businesses, and community leaders.

Local Business Accelerator

Fueling Small Business Growth

We will support local entrepreneurs with branding, marketing, and access to our Go Local Mailer to help them grow and stay rooted in the community.
