Schools and youth serving organizations

Explore a 2027 Pilot Partnership

Bring the eight week Youth Empowerment Program to a cohort of 10 to 15 young people, with initial pilots personally led by Sensei Dave.

What we plan together

• The participant group, age range, and individual needs.
• Eight Exposure Days and eight leadership sessions.
• Local access, scheduling, staffing, and transportation.
• Practical measures and a review of what we learn.

We begin by understanding your setting. The delivery plan, budget, and responsibilities are agreed before the cohort begins.

Businesses and community organizations

Become an Exposure Partner

Open the door to the world inside your organization. Help participants see the variety of roles, skills, and routes that make your work possible.

A meaningful experience could include

• A visit across frontline and behind the scenes teams.
• Time with people at different career stages.
• Questions, demonstrations, and appropriate supervised activities.
• Returning connections as young people discover their interests.

We are looking across corporations, sports, media, aviation, technology, trades, healthcare, entrepreneurship, and education. The whole day is five to six hours, including transport and lunch; time onsite is planned accordingly.

Turn curiosity into a next step

Help Create Opportunities

A young person discovers an interest. You may be able to help them explore it further.

Possible pathways

• Training, scholarships, and access to further learning.
• Job shadowing and age appropriate internships.
• Apprenticeships and employment pathways where eligible.
• Introductions to established community resources.

Opportunities are explored with the young person and host organization. They depend on availability, readiness, eligibility, and appropriate support.

Foundations, corporations, donors, and agencies

Fund a Cohort

Help make a complete experience possible for a small group of young people, with the time, people, and practical support needed to deliver it well.

Build a budget around real delivery

• Curriculum preparation and skilled facilitation.
• Experience coordination and local partner relationships.
• Transportation, insurance, lunch, and access needs.
• Staffing, materials, feedback, and evaluation.

We will develop the actual scope and cost with each partner. Funders can help shape useful reporting before launch.
