what is the need?
STUDENTS
Many under-resourced students are not exposed to various professional and high-income careers. They often lack the mentorship, skills, and social capital to succeed, and as a result too many graduate unprepared for today’s workforce.
COMPANIES
At the same time, companies are seeking ways to:
Build a future-ready talent pipeline.
Deliver meaningful employee engagement and experience.
Advance corporate social responsibility (CSR) and social impact goals.
our solution
Our Solution for STUDENTS AND COMPANIES
Dream Opportunity bridges this gap by connecting employees directly with motivated students through skills-based volunteering such as panels, workshops, and mentoring.
These experiences:
Expose students to a wide range of careers and industries while equipping them with professional skills and mentorship. We also collaborate with talent acquisition teams to provide students with access to apprenticeships, internships, and entry-level jobs.
Strengthen employee connection, morale, and retention while helping companies meet their CSR and social impact commitments.
