Geauga Business Magazine Educational Scholarship Program
POV Solution and Ten10 have combined forces to start an Educational Scholarship. This combined effort is being funded with the help of the Primary Sponsors of the Geauga Business Magazine. This year we have teamed up with The Geauga Growth Partnership and will be picking two individuals from their Incubator Youth Program. Each student who is interested in participating in the Scholarship is being asked to submit an essay that outlines their summer experience and the goals that they wish to obtain throughout their experience. The finalist will be judged on their essay and the actual growth they have demonstrated during the program. The finalist will be awarded at the 2022 Home Grown Event that will be hosted this year at Sapphire Creek Winery on August 4th, 2022.
Previously known as the Geauga Growth Partnership Summer Internship Program, the redesigned Incubator program aims to connect youth, families, schools, and businesses together in support of the youth’s pursuit of purpose in the workplace. Youth develop new skills and competencies that increase employability regardless of their educational and career pursuits post-high school graduation, and engaging them in the communities in which they live in such a way that shows viability for life and work in the future. All youth who participate in the 2022 Incubator Program will be part of a cohort of 15-18-year-olds. GGP will coordinate Incubator Onboarding, and workshops throughout the summer for the cohort, and provide supervision/connection to the companies. The Geauga Growth Partnership Youth Workforce Incubator Program will serve as an opportunity for all youth, to develop key employability and social skills needed to succeed in the workplace and in the future.
