Days Until Giving Tuesday
Today Is The Day To

Eliminate The Barriers

We believe in supporting and advocating for education, employment, and economic equity of all women. We do this through our Step Up for Women Construction Pre-Apprenticeship program and our wraparound services. Our students come from a variety of backgrounds and all face barriers in some form. You can help us break down and eliminate some of the barriers being faced with your donations.

Students will need supplies for the class which include hard hats and safety gear, a tool belt with basic hand tools, and steel-toed boots. We also assist graduates with paying exam costs and union dues when needed. Your donations ensure no student is faced with the barrier of not being able to afford these items. 

What Your Donation Provides For Our Students

  • $10 Goes towards an application fee for a license or certification for our students. Stacked credentials give students a better chance of getting hired in a higher-wage position.

  • $25 Provides the supplies needed during class and after such as safety glasses and a hard hat for one student. These supplies will be essential in their new field of work.

  • $50 Provides a tool belt with hand tools so the student is prepared to start working as soon as they get hired.

  • $100 Provides steel-toed boots for a student that otherwise could not afford to buy them. This allows them to be prepared for the first day of a new job in the skilled trades.

  • Every dollar donated makes a huge impact in eliminating the barriers students face. This allows them to be successful in their new skilled trades career earning a living wage.
