C4k Employee Directory

We believe that all youth should have a choice about their future. C4Ks mission is to help youth achieve personal confidence and academic success, start a path toward self-sustaining careers and be prepared to serve as community leaders. C4K brings our mission to life by empowering youth from low-income families with STEAM (science, technology, eng... ineering, arts, and math) skills through evidence-based mentoring programming. In Charlottesville City Schools, the average on-time graduation rate for students of color is 84%. For economically disadvantaged students, it is 81%. However, in our 17-year history as a mentoring organization, 98% of C4K members graduate high school on time and over 92% of those went on to attend college. All our programming is FREE to eligible youth: One-to-one mentoring. Drop-in group mentoring. Camps, workshops, job shadowing, field trips. Youth leadership opportunities on our Youth Council. Access to industry-level software, Video & Audio Production Suites. Self-paced, self-guided projects. A free, refurbished laptop. Mentoring at C4K is a great opportunity for members of the public to serve as role models to youth while building skills and connecting with like-minded volunteers in our community. All mentoring takes place at C4Ks learning studios in the IX Building near downtown Charlottesville. New Mentor Training is on the first Saturday of each month, at C4K: 945 2nd St SE, Charlottesville, VA 22902.
