Summary

  • $50,000 is the target of We are HOPE, Inc.-The EmployAbility Hub’s annual campaign to keep funding career exploration, job training and employment services.
  • Kim Carley, the group’s executive director, said many job seekers face barriers including disabilities, age, justice status and low confidence, making it harder to find or keep work.
  • Summer brings a surge of openings, but Carley said many people still do not know where to start, driving demand for the hub’s guidance and skills-building programs.
  • Sept. 29 will bring one of the campaign’s biggest fundraisers, Grub at the Hub, as the nonprofit seeks to sustain support for the community.
