While unemployment and underemployment remain a core cause of poverty, stable work unlocks opportunities, promotes sustained and inclusive economic growth, and can double or triple a family's income.

Your donations to Into Employment ensure more access to critical resources and support as young people transition from childhood to adulthood. Opportunity can begin a new family legacy.

INVESTING IN ECONOMIC EQUITY

With a gift to Into Employment, you’re investing in young people‘s — especially women‘s — futures.

Young women have historically been pulled from education to tend to their families and household responsibilities. They are also disproportionately affected by working hour losses and pay cuts. Globally, young men are almost 1.5 times more likely to be employed than young women. Because most of our participants are women, you can be sure your investment is supporting a fairer future.

“Thank you to everyone who[came] together to help children like Jirah make their dreams come true.”

“I believe in Children International youth. Everyone should have the same opportunities to progress.”

— Lester González, program graduate, business owner, employer partner

Lester González, 31, owns a coffee shop and roastery in Honduras and is a Children International graduate. He maintains ties to Children International by partnering with us to provide job training and employment to participants in Into Employment.

Lester‘s is the ultimate success story: A child in poverty is supported through Children International‘s foundational programming. Not only does he obtain formal employment, but he also invests in other young adults who see him as a role model for rising out of poverty. Lester is proud to be a part of the organization that made such a positive impact on his life, helping young people in the same position as he once was.
