Futures for Kids Be a Career Coach
  By the year 2016, the majority of our skilled workforce will have retired and moved to Mexico. Who will turn on our electricity?

Did you have someone who helped you get where you are today, or do you wish you had?

As a Career Coach with F4K, you can provide feedback and encouragement for students interested in what it is you do—what you like best, how you got there and why. It only takes a few minutes a week, and you can make an impact on a child’s future while offering guidance to our future workforce. Everything is online so you can answer questions when your schedule permits, wherever you have an internet connection.

Want to do more? Consider F4K's Work-Based Learning option!

Why Work-Based Learning? It's a chance to connect the real world and the classroom, reaching the students who are our future workforce and providing a context of relevance that makes education an opportunity rather than an obligation.

Why F4K? Businesses want to help, educators want volunteers, but no one has the time to track each other down. Using F4K's web-based infrastructure and existing network, participants can outline their availability, students can search for opportunities, and educators can coordinate it all simply and virtually. A win for everyone, especially students.

Futures for Kids (F4K) is a non-profit organization that uses technology to help students explore career
opportunities related to their interests and passions. Through its online program, F4K also connects mentors
with middle and high school students in North Carolina, regardless of location or socioeconomic background,
to provide the relevance and motivation the students need to stay in school and succeed.
