Student Testimonial
"I find the 'Get That Job' Module to be extremely helpful and I will be revisiting it as I try to get a summer job. I especially like the interview section! This is definitely something I would have loved in school and I think it will help boost confidence in a lot of students.
“Overcome the Fear of Fundraising” is so pertinent to teenagers today. A lot of high school fundraisers are unsuccessful because we don’t feel comfortable asking for donations for our fundraiser. I always end up asking only my family members, instead of reaching out to people I don’t know as well."
-MYLA T., student, Ohio
