What we'd like to talk about
I'd like to brainstorm ideas for using a Catchafire volunteer to help develop a Marketing Skills training /curriculum badge that teens can earn in preparation to start their own web design business.
Additional context
This project is part of our Ready To Be program, which guides underserved, primarily youth of color, in planning thoughtful, relevant, fulfilling and rewarding pathways into postsecondary life. CAF volunteer would work with our Director of Youth Development and FamilyMeans volunteer to develo the curriculum. Option is then available to help teach the skills to youth!
"Phone calls" are 1 hour, one-time calls with an organization. Learn the difference between volunteering on a Phone call and a Project here.

Testimonials
Jody was immediately helpful in shaping our project, by asking clarifying questions and sharing parts of her knowledge and experiences that could contribute to our work. Our conversation gave us good direction on how to move ahead with our project development. After some new work, we'll reconnect with Jody for her feedback.
It was a pleasure working with Tom! I was able to provide guidance and content suggestions and then Tom and his colleague did a wonderful job of putting it all together. The final draft of the curriculum looked great!
