families who depend on their daughter’s income for economic
sustainability.

such as providing tutors to assist girls with homework and college
preparatory exams.

Launchpad
Program
Recipe 4 Success' vision is to see an increase of girls attending college
and entering the real world with increased confidence and poise.
In connection with
the Plus Scholarship program, the Launchpad program was developed to
aid a girl’s transition from college graduate to career woman
as well as encourage younger girls to begin exploring career pathways.
The Launchpad program assists and supports girls in career and leadership
development through:
- A big-sister
program that gives girls the opportunity to learn and shadow other
successful women and to develop a network of support with likeminded,
career-oriented women. The long term goal is for the network to develop
into an alumni database that will support an environment amongst women
and students for job postings/openings as well as develop a base of
future supports of and donors to the organization.
- Informal lunch
meetings where young female professionals can speak to students of
their experience in the career world and students can ask questions
and explore different career fields.
- A program that
supports a young woman’s first step toward employment by sponsoring
their attendance at career workshops, career fairs and leadership
workshops, providing a career counseling and leadership development
resource center and maintaining a bulletin board of vacant entry-level
positions in various industries.
Individual and in-kind
donations from institutions and corporations are always in need to cover
field trips and the cost of providing a resource center for girls to
do homework in or going over interview or college application questions
with a volunteer counselor. |
