AMWS, August 15, 2018, Atlanta -- Some 118 applicants from the
Cleveland and Atlanta Federal Reserve regions are among the first to ENGAGE as
candidates for a PAID CONTRACTOR position.
Youth Achievers USA Institute is
committed to raising “Whole Villages” of learners to ENGAGE as COMMUNITY ASSET
MANAGERS (CAMs).
“Two-Percenter” capacity building targets candidates who are
ready, willing and able to help youth in low income American families grow up
less poor. The successful contractor partners
with an existing YouthUSA economic beneficiary or qualifies a new beneficiary
to model economic fellowships where our beneficiaries live, learn, work and/or
worship.
Any YouthUSA beneficiary, who has reached age 25, or caring adult stakeholder
can become a paid contractor; or any youth or adult in a Whole Village may engage
in selecting the first of 12 PAID CONTRACT COMMUNITY ASSET MANAGERS (CAMs).
Candidates for the contract position are now engaged in
fundraising to support 12 funded contract positions in 2019. You can support this effort through a
tax-deductible contribution of $5 or more to Youth Achievers USA Institute.
From childhood we have watched
as everything our ancestors worked for—
their flocks and herds, their sons and daughters—
was squandered on a delusion.
