Exposure is our fourth "E". Along w/ education, employment, and emotional wellbeing, it is the foundation of GOSO programming.
We had a beautiful afternoon at Evercore's office providing just that to participants, part of a burgeoning partnership. #GOSO#CareerDevelopment 1/4
When asked the tough questions about why they chose finance and what keeps them there, the Evercore volunteers said it beautifully: it's the people, the welcoming culture, and the foundation that keeps them going. 3/4
Small moments like these reflect our bigger commitment: Equipping young people with the skills and confidence to build sustainable futures.
This is the work. πβοΈ
We believe engaging young people in learning means meeting them where they are β and having fun while doing it! Our education team incorporated toothpick math into programming as a hands-on creative activity to keep participants energized and invested. #YouthDevelopment
At GOSO, we walk alongside our participants as they rebuild their lives and take care of themselves. We believe that healing is part of reentry and stable lives are built when the whole person is seen and supported. 2/3
This week, we're celebrating the people who show up, not because they have to, but because they believe in the power of learning and in the potential of every person in our community. 1/3
To our volunteer tutors and our incredible staff who teach every day: thank you. Your time, patience, and dedication create real opportunities for the young men we serve. You're not just teaching skills. you're helping build confidence, trust, and brighter futures. 2/3
