Building Better Youth, Better Businesses and a Better South Carolina
"THE PROGRAM"
Today's Youth will be Tomorrow's Leaders.
Businesses are encouraged to look within their existing customer base and seek to find a young person who is not related to any member of
their staff. The business should reach out to
the guardian of the young person and ask them
if the young person can be a part of the shadow internship at the business location.
* This is a key step in cementing that your business has a commitment to the community it serves.
Benefits: Your business will get a link on our newsletter that is broadcasted every month for 12 months and placement on our website on the BLYA Partner page.
