My Project

The Transition Fair at Erasmus Hall Campus is a signature annual event that connects students with representatives from diverse career fields, including civil service, healthcare, aesthetics and various trades. This interactive event introduces students to many job opportunities, educational requirements, and pathways for success beyond high school. In addition, career representatives from local colleges and universities join, providing students with insights into higher education options and the application process. Trade schools will also be present, highlighting the benefits of vocational training and the skills needed for in-demand careers. The annual transition fair allows our students to explore a wide range of pathways, whether they choose to pursue a college degree or enter the workforce with specialized training.

Students participate in interactive activities, visiting career booths where they can ask meaningful questions and learn more about prospective fields of interest.

To motivate and inspire, we incorporate rewards, gaming, and food trucks, making it both informative and fun!

We are seeking support to elevate this year’s Transition Fair, which serves more than 150 students from multiple grade levels. Specifically, we are in need of T-shirts for our volunteers and school staff to create a sense of unity and school spirit during the event. These T-shirts will not only serve as a uniform for our volunteers, making them easily identifiable to students and guests, but they will also provide a memorable keepsake for students who attend.

Your generous contribution will help us host the most successful Transition Fair yet, providing students with the tools and connections to explore their futures.
