Do You Have Any Job or Scholarship Information for Young People?
January 30th, 2012 by Shorty
We are always talking about our future, but we somehow fail our future we we fail to do what we can to make sure they are prepared for the future. Since I cannot be all things to all teens, the least I can do is try to help boost their education and employment opportunities. Thus, if you learn of any job or scholarship information or any other educational opportunities please post them in the comment section below or on our South Side Shorty Facebook Page.
