Volunteer to support people returning to the workforce
Path Forward is a nonprofit on a mission to empower caregivers to restart their careers. You can help us fulfill our mission when you volunteer to help build a caregiver’s interviewing confidence as they embark on their return to work.
Give your employees the opportunity to make an impact
By sponsoring a Path Forward interview readiness event, your employees will have the opportunity to contribute their time, expertise, and passion to make an impact on people’s ability to successfully return to the workforce. Your team of 15 to 30 volunteers can participate in one of two event formats:
-
- Elevator Pitches (1 hour event)
- Mock Interviews (2 hour event)
Volunteers don’t need to be recruiters or people who regularly conduct interviews in order to participate. They just need to be willing to actively listen and feel comfortable giving constructive feedback to others. This is a particularly meaningful opportunity for those employees engaged in your affinity groups around women, parenting, and caregiving.
Here is what past participants have to say about the importance of these events:
“It was not only informational, but also motivational, in getting me back to applying again. I had almost given up. The volunteers were very encouraging and genuine. Their feedback was definitely helpful for my interviewing.”
“Thank you very much to everyone behind this event. Though I had prepared myself to answer behavioral questions, it didn’t come out well during the mock interview. After the volunteer gave me feedback, I realized what I should work on.”
Event sponsorship requires a corporate donation. Path Forward is a 501c3 nonprofit organization and all donations are 100% tax deductible. If you have any questions, please contact us at [email protected].
