Students who will be the first in their families to graduate with a 4-year degree need your help! America Needs You (ANY) students in our Fellows Program have been getting comfortable with networking and their elevator pitches. Join our upcoming Zoom sessions to continue helping them practice their communication skills, refine the their elevator pitches, and meet professionals in diverse industries across the country. You will be giving these students the opportunity to practice this important interview skill as they apply for internships next year. No additional prep work necessary - orientation will be provided at the beginning of each session.

We are now only in need of volunteers for the evening sessions. - 10/3/2024 update
