Pledge an Opportunity!

Help a young adult experience the world of work today! We are currently seeking not-for-profit, for-profit, and governmental agencies interested in partnering with the Suncoast Workforce Board to Pledge an Opportunity, a five-week, part-time meaningful work experience during the summer months of 2009.

By providing a work experience, your organization can benefit from:

  • having extra help through the summer months
  • launching or completing projects that may have been on hold
  • providing valuable work readiness skills training to youth participants

All at no cost to you! Participants will be awarded training incentives and the requisite liability coverage is being covered by the program.

The goal of our Pledge an Opportunity campaign is to secure 300 pledged opportunities throughout Sarasota and Manatee Counties by June 1, 2009.
