The Community Foundation of Palm Beach and Martin Counties has made a meaningful impact on local high school youth by supporting the Big Brothers Big Sisters School to Work program over the past year. This initiative provides students with a unique learning experience that combines virtual one-to-one mentoring with in-person support and hands-on career exploration during the month of June. Thanks to the Foundation’s generous support, youth across Palm Beach and Martin Counties are gaining invaluable insight into life after high school, exploring diverse career paths, and discovering how local businesses operate through interactive field trips. Through mentorship and a series of professional workshops, students are empowered with a network of support, the knowledge, skills, and confidence needed for a successful transition into adulthood. A heartfelt thank you to the Community Foundation and its donors for investing in the future of our youth and community.
