In today’s workforce, companies often talk about innovation, inclusion, and social responsibility, but few opportunities allow you to invest in all three at once. Partnering with Persevere does.
Persevere is more than a nonprofit. It is a movement transforming the way our country approaches workforce development by teaching in-demand technology skills and providing wraparound support to individuals who have faced barriers to employment, including incarceration. Every sponsorship dollar creates a direct bridge between employers and skilled, motivated individuals ready to contribute to the workforce.
1. Closing the Talent Gap
Across industries, employers face the same challenge of finding qualified workers. Persevere graduates are trained in Front End Development, Full Stack Development, Data Analytics, CompTIA certifications, AWS Cloud Practitioner, Microsoft Apps, and Project Management. Their education goes beyond technical skills. Through mentoring, case management, and employment readiness training, Persevere prepares participants to be reliable, purpose-driven employees who are eager to build meaningful careers.
Corporate sponsors do not just fund training. They invest in a pipeline of talent that is already equipped to fill critical roles.
2. Advancing Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion
Workplace diversity cannot happen without opportunity. Persevere students come from communities that are often overlooked, including justice-impacted individuals, single parents, veterans, and those rebuilding after hardship. By sponsoring Persevere, employers take measurable action toward creating a more equitable workforce that reflects both the communities they serve and the values they stand for.
Your sponsorship demonstrates that second chances create stronger teams and that transformation is possible when we invest in people, not just policies.
3. Strengthening Communities and the Economy
When graduates secure living-wage jobs, families stabilize and communities thrive. Each successful placement helps reduce recidivism, strengthens local economies, and lessens the burden on social systems. Sponsorship is not charity. It is community reinvestment that generates long-term social and economic impact.
Employers become part of a solution that is data-driven, scalable, and sustainable, one that uplifts families and fuels regional growth.
4. Aligning Brand Values with Real Impact
Consumers, employees, and investors increasingly expect companies to lead with purpose. Sponsoring Persevere is a tangible way to demonstrate corporate social responsibility (CSR) while supporting an initiative that directly changes lives. Sponsors are recognized through events, digital campaigns, and media stories that highlight how their partnership fuels hope, education, and opportunity.
When your brand stands beside Persevere, you are aligning with innovation, inclusion, and integrity, values that resonate deeply in today’s marketplace.
