Business Sponsors are the backbone of PFF's youth employment component.  Business Sponsors commit to providing paid job experiences for PFF students for three consecutive summers, providing workplace mentors, learning and developmental opportunities, and contributing to PFF’s scholarship fund (used to match students’ savings and provide additional scholarship monies to PFF’s current students and graduates). Some of these companies also sponsor students to work at other locations, such as non profit organizations.

PFF Business Sponsors supported almost 150 students in both summers 2005 and 2006.  Click here to view sponsors that graduated PFF students in 2005.
