Career Explorations: Teach High School students about exciting careers!

Do you have a passion for working with teens? Do you want to help teens learn about exciting careers? Volunteer with our LifeWise Academy program!

LifeWise Academy provides academic enrichment, social emotional support, life skills, and job readiness activities to teens during a critical period of development so that they are better prepared for post-secondary success. Programming is designed to address the barriers that make academic success difficult to achieve which includes limited resources, lack of stability, the absence of meaningful mentor relationships, and the lack of one-on-one attention and guidance. LifeWise Academy staff and community work each day to ensure that our scholars have the resources and the tools they need to ensure post-secondary success for all.

Volunteers are needed to lead Career Exploration enrichment sessions once a week to teens on Thursdays 5-6pm. We have provided some examples of careers below, but are not limited to these examples! We would like to expose our scholars to a wide variety of careers!

• Accountant
• Engineer
• Veterinarian
• Cosmetologist
• Entrepreneur
• Chef/Culinary
• Education
• Computer Science
• Web/Graphic Design
• Any STEAM related field
