To view the full email update visit www.unionproject.org/About_Us/News UP item of the week: YOUTH BARISTA PROGRAM – FREE COFFEE AND DESSERT RECEPTION – Tomorrow - Friday! Join us Friday October 5th from 6-8pm, during Penn Avenues' Unblurred for a free coffee and dessert reception and the official introduction of the Youth Barista Program to our community. We will be serving FREE coffee drinks from our beautiful newly constructed coffee bar in our Great Hall with live musical entertainment and a pottery seconds sale. The Union Project is proud to announce a partnership with Starbucks for our new Youth Barista Program, an onsite skills training program for young adults. Over the coming year this program will train 30 young men and women aging out of foster care. Forty percent of foster youth end up homeless in their first 2 years out of the system. This program works to change that number locally by providing youth with skills and job placements in café and food service, allowing them to earn a living wage.
