The Marin County School to Career Partnership is seeking funding to support our current operations and to expand our programs in some key areas. These include:
Funding
to maintain the Business and Education Liaisons who serve
at all public high schools. The Partnership Liaisons
are essential to our program. They help students
determine their potential career interests and connect
them to work-based learning opportunities. They serve as
a resource to teachers developing new courses and seeking
guest speakers or project advisors. Liaisons assist
businesses and organizations with the development of
internship opportunities and provide support for
employers throughout the term of the internship.
Expansion
of services for alternative education and continuation
schools, and for students from at-risk environments.
We are committed to making our programs available to all
students, whatever their academic, social or economic
backgrounds. We are currently working at alternative
education schools with students who are part of the
juvenile justice system or who have not been successful
in the traditional high school setting.
Stipends and transportation funds for economically disadvantaged students. Most of the internships offered by the businesses and organizations in our Partnership are unpaid positions. Thus, students who need to work in order to support themselves or help support their families may not be able to participate in our program. In order to make these important educational opportunities available to all students we are seeking funding to pay stipends and provide transportation funds to students in need.
What would your contribution "buy" our Partnership?
Contributions of any amount are welcome and are essential to the continuation of our work. Here are some examples of what donations would mean to our Partnership:
$10,000 Support
for Business and Education Liaison services on high
school campuses and at employer worksites.
Their work is critical to student success and for
the providing of resources and support services to
teachers. $5,000 Expansion
of services for Alternative Education and
Continuation School students, and for students from
at-risk environments. This includes one-to-one
assistance for students provided by Partnership
staff, "coach-assisted" internships, and the
expansion of community resources provided to
alternative education schools. $1,000 Sponsorship
of student internship stipends for two economically
disadvantaged students. Help students in need
who must work to support themselves or their
families take part in a potentially life-changing,
unpaid internship. $500 Assistance
with costs for transporting groups of students to
worksite visits, career fairs and college
visits. Bus passes are also provided to
individual students in need for bus passes to
internship worksites, interviews and job
shadows.
