This project aims to create a bridge between the labor market and students while motivating them to get involved in initiatives that promote community development." Efforts in this project will be concentrated over a period of two years, on placement of 100 students in internships in companies in Haiti. Training workshops on personal leadership, the development of professional and interpersonal skills and community service will be organized for members of the organization and the student community in general.
