Help drive our mission forward.

The Career Share mission is to promote clarity and opporutnity for career explorers in underrepresented groups.

REPRESENTATION MATTERS.

Demographic underrepresentation is a reality across many of today's career fields.  A lack of relatable career role models can distort youth's perceptions of what's possible in thier future. We can't afford to have our youth underestimate their potential or their job options because of their race, gender, or zip code.  Historically underrepresented communities and youth interested in nontraditional careers should be easily able to see themselves represented across a variety of well-paying occupations to broaden their aspirations.

KNOWLEDGE POWERS MOVEMENT.

In addition to seeing others succeed, awareness of local opportunities, self-discovery of interests, and developing soft skills to power success on the job are key elements of career exploration and development, even at young age. Through our work, we intend to open eyes, erase limits, promote new opportunities, shatter stereotypes, and increase self-efficacy for those who need it most.

EVERY DOLLAR MAKES A DIFFERENCE.

Career Share resources are a vehicle for exposure for youth who need career role models, interest development, and plans of action that can lead to a balanced approach to career exploration and fulfillment.  We're motivated to make a difference by:

• inspiring youth with career education
• expanding awareness about career paths and the variety of educational options available 
• facilitating direct access to diverse career role models
• shattering stereotypes along the way

Career Share is an independent educational nonprofit funded by the generosity of the public.  Consider sharing a financial gift to sustain and expand our programs.
