Want to Make a Difference? Help Empower the Next Generation of Leaders
In an industry-wide #GivingBack effort, TSNN, CEN and Tarsus CARES are participating in a fundraiser leading up to Global Giving Day (also known as GivingTuesday – a worldwide generosity movement set for Dec. 1), and we are inviting you to be a part of it!
This year, TSNN’s charity of choice is Management Leadership for Tomorrow (MLT). Why? Because they’re on a mission to help empower the next generation of leaders and we want to help!
A striking number of Black, Latinx and Native Americans remain vulnerable during and after college, and they walk a tenuous path to economic mobility.
In fact, nearly 60 percent of recent graduates are unemployed or working in jobs that do not require a college degree. MLT bridges that critical college-to-career transition gap.
More than 90 percent of MLT undergraduates (greater than 50 percent of whom are from low-income families) obtain fast-track jobs upon graduation averaging $75K starting salaries.
This sets these graduates of color on the path to lasting economic mobility, providing the social capital they need to become high-impact senior leaders who can transform our institutions and vulnerable communities.
