Meet Hansel. He didn’t become a statistic. He’s heading to the Chesapeake Conservation and Climate Corps! Our team at Frontline Gig recruited Hansel and guided his application and onboarding into the program. But our efforts stand on the prior investments made by organizations like Youth Opportunity Baltimore and his family. When Hansel was a wee lad, his mom and dad pushed him into every available environmental program for kids. Your kid probably didn’t stack the community service hours in high school that Hansel did. He graduated with more than 800 hours of community service. But he didn’t go on to become an environmental hero just yet. In fact, he got derailed for a bit because he didn’t always hang out with the right people. Eventually, he found his way back with Youth Opportunity Baltimore - a Mayor's Office Initiative. He says that the organization showed him a different way and gave him the confidence he needed to take a different path. By the time he saw Frontline Gig’s ad for a paid gap year with the Chesapeake Conservation and Climate Corps, he was primed and ready to try something new. I’m so honored to be a part of this amazing young man's journey. We’ve also scooped him up for the next few weeks as a Frontline Ambassador. He will help us reach more young people like him who are ready for their next shot. Do you know any young men like Hansel who are ready for their next opportunity? They may be eligible for a similar program - the Maryland Corps/Service Year launched by Gov. Wes Moore last year. Our team at Frontline Gig is on board to help more young people like Hansel use Climate Corps and Service Year opportunities to build the lifelong networks needed to launch careers in any area.
