I was a Club Kid! For the Club Kids who are leaders, innovators, change-makers,
who share a passion for supporting the next generation of Club Kids.

Welcome to the Club, After the Club

Please consider participating in our Pathways to Success programs. This program is an excellent way to introduce our current Club members to the many and varied career fields open to them. 

We encourage our alumni professionals and companies to engage in “Round Robin” interviews with our youth, helping them learn about promising jobs and educational opportunities. Help organize a “Pathways” workshop in your local Club, or host a field trip/tour of your company by contacting our
development department.
