IKRON's 17th Annual Golf Outing: September 18, 2021
Fall Graduation: October 22, 2021

54 Students Explore Potential Careers

We couldn't be prouder of these hard workers! Now in its seventh year, the Summer Youth program offers a real-world job experience to teens and young adults from around the Greater Cincinnati area, who spend part of their summer learning what it's like to go to work every day. From kitchen work to landscaping, answering phones to stocking shelves, students clock in and out either three or five days each week, learning real job skills and earning real paychecks.
Here's what some participants and their guardians had to say:

• "I love that my son was able to experience a job that he enjoyed doing, along with great people to help him learn and initiate self-sufficient work skills."
• "I learned to work in a kitchen!"
• "It gave kids the opportunity to learn different job skills and know they could do almost anything."
• "I wish it could be for the entire summer."

IKRON's 17th Annual Golf Outing - September 18

Despite all the challenges of 2020, we served more youth than ever before. With your help, we can do it again in 2021 and beyond--all of the proceeds from the golf outing benefit IKRON's programs to give area youth a strong start to their future.
