Review for Urban Ed Inc, Washington, DC, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I have known Urban Ed's founder, Roxanne Williams, professionally for more than 10 years. Urban Ed was born out of Roxanne's passion, commitment, and vision. A main thrust of the organization is to provide opportunities for youth to develop technology skills and experience to prepare them for meaningful employment. Unlike many other programs that aim to boost employability and fight poverty, Urban Ed empowers its students to truly earn a living wage. I have recently joined Urban Ed's board.

What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...

talking with Urban Ed students and seeing their enthusiasm about the program and their futures.

The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...

committed and knowledgeable.
