"Connections to Success is incredibly grateful for our time with ClicKC! Volunteers are an integral part of the work that we do and ClicKC has been with us every step of the way for the past year. ClicKC has participated in various activities in order to assist us to empower individuals in their transformation to economic independence. Members from ClicKC have participated in our Personal and Professional Development Class to serve as role models on a Career Panel and assist with mock interviews. Other members mentor to provide hope and support for our participants and their families. In addition to directly working with our participants, ClicKC has created a vibrant space for our participants to engage with training and coaching.

Each and every member from ClicKC has been an absolute joy to work with over the past year and we are so grateful for all of the volunteering they have done."

While this project is currently underway, CLICKC efforts thus far have included a CLICKC team for the CTS Power Walk and we have begun working with CTS clients through a monthly Career Panel of CLICKC volunteers. Remaining efforts include volunteers for mentoring, building renovation projects, providing team building sponsors, host and facilitate meeting for CTS clients, sponsor Professional Women’s Group meetings, provide volunteers as personal shoppers, and undertake a clothing drive.
