It's simple....match CYC kids (High School or College) for full or part-time summer gigs at a company (paid or not).  CYC is bubbling with smart, energetic kids...we are looking to nurture them into effective contributors to the greater community.  We have been doing this intern-matching on a very low key and casual way in the past, but now we're putting more structure around it.  Please help us in any way you can:

-Can you or your firm create an internship (could just be a part time job for the summer) for one of our college or high school CYC participants?  Or...do you know someone who can help...here's the script....."can you create a part time internship for the summer....we have a lot of sharp kids who could use an opportunity to peer into the day-to-day operations of an office/factory/restaurant/business like yours(build their resumes & experience)....the intership could be either paid (preferable) or unpaid...some companies have done something like....4 hours a day...4 days a week for 8 weeks...$500 stipend at the end of summer....CYC needs leaders like you to help nurture the next generation"....whatever you can do would be greatly appreciated!"
