Join
the 100 Black Men of Savannah, student, faculty, and staff of Sol C. Johnson
H.S.at 10:00am on Thursday February 11that Sol C Johnson High School as the
Savannah 100’s Economic Development Committee, in partnership with Sol C.
Johnson H.S., introduces students,
parents, and media to our new
Economic
Empowerment program.
Becoming
financially empowered starts with understanding financial choices. The SCJ/100
Economic Empowerment program is all about choices, the right choices. By giving
youth the opportunity to learn about Real Estate, Business Planning, Stock
Markets, and Banking we are helping our youth with keys to financial freedom. The
SCJ 100 Economic Empowerment Project will have real business men and women in the
community teaching lessons from everyday business life. Select seniors will
also have the opportunity to shadow a Savannah business professional for a workday,
seeing how they operate in the field. By combining real world lessons with real
world experience youth will get a glimpse of what the future may hold for them.
With
the support of the business community, Johnson H.S., and the 100 Black Men of Savannah,
Inc., the project will also offer
four, $1,250 scholarships to eligible seniors.
This
is a great program dedicated to our youth and we invite you to Parent & Media
day to see what it is all about.
