YOU DO BUSINESS
IN OUR COMMUNITY.
HELP BUILD ITS FUTURE.
CAFE is bringing businesses, schools, professionals and community partners together to create greater access to careers, arts, financial education and esteem-building opportunities for young people.
STUDENTS TELL US WHAT THEY NEED.
WE CONNECT THE COMMUNITY THAT CAN HELP.
CAFE listens to students about their career interests, future plans, questions and barriers. We then mobilize alumni, professionals, businesses and corporate partners to help turn those interests into real-world access and opportunity.
