21st Annual Jobs for youth program

 Hire. Host. Support.
Build Yakima’s Future Workforce.
Job Fair: May 27 | 11:00 AM – 4:00 PM
Location: OIC Henry Beauchamp Community Center

Our goal is to support at least 100 youth in gaining:

  • Job readiness skills

  • Job shadow experiences

  • Internships

  • Paid summer employment

To make this happen, we aim to raise approximately $150,000, which covers:

  • $137,040 in direct student wages (100 youth at minimum wage for up to 80 hours)

  • $12,960 for student support services, certifications, and program administration (payment processing, materials, printing, etc.)

Employer participation, through hiring, hosting, or sponsoring, is what makes these opportunities possible.
