Hello!
Thank you for being an Atlas Corps Monthly Donor! You are part of a unique group of supporters who are proving long-term investment in our organization and our social change leaders.
Your support helped us to recruit Joshua - a training and youth development specialist from Nigeria! As an Atlas Corps Fellow, Joshua will be serving at Bronxworks in New York as the Employment Specialist Fellow. In that role, Joshua will help to support youth in a variety of ways. This role includes developing and facilitating work readiness workshops, resume help, planning retention events to keep youth engaged in services, and identifying and engaging employers.
Joshua is also part of our new partnership with the IBM Corporate Service Corps (read more in Scott Beale's recent post: http://bit.ly/partnershipatlas). Here is a quick overview of the partnership:
For the first time in its history, Atlas Corps is matching some of our Fellows with IBM Corporate Service Corps (CSC) members in San Francisco and New York to help address critical social issues in our local communities....This year marks CSC’s 10 year anniversary and the first time they are bringing their global talent to American communities. Atlas Corps is honored to be part of this new model in helping American nonprofit organizations build sustainability and ensure that effective corporate best practices are brought to bear to enhance our communities.
Thank you for support Joshua, Atlas Corps, and all of our Fellows!
-Abby
