STUDENT RESOURCES
Workforce Development is part of the Chamber's core principles, but we cannot accomplish this without strong companies in our corner providing working and learning opportunities for East End Youth.
Student resources and career exploration experiences like internships, scholarships, volunteer opportunities and camps enhance academic learning and cultivate well-rounded individuals equipped with the skills and experiences necessary to excel in their future careers and workforce.

For companies, they bring many benefits starting with fresh perspectives, energy, and enthusiasm into the workplace. They can also serve as a pipeline for recruiting talented individuals for future full-time positions. By hosting these programs, companies invest in the future workforce and contribute to the development of young professionals.

VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES
Volunteering is a student's first introduction to networking! These opportunities provide valuable learning experiences for students and are a chance to do good for others and the community. Volunteering also creates a sense of connection to others in the community, allows students to give something back, learn new skills, and provide valuable work experience.
