Greetings!
This year, Futures for Kids saw 6,000 student/Career Coach conversations via F4K message boards and more than 180,000 students explore career options through their F4K electronic portfolios. Among those students was a high school senior who found her motivation to pull up her grades and get into college, a sophomore who gained confidence from creating his resume, and an 8th grader excited about a career where she can help people. This is why we're here, and we couldn't do it without your support. Click below to make a tax-deductible year-end contribution or sign up as a Career Coach and pay it forward!
