to ignite leadership and make a real impact on Diversity & Inclusion
Toronto, Ontario Feb 9, 2021 (Issuewire.com) - RetailU, the leading eLearning platform in Canada, and One Voice One Team, a youth leadership non-profit, have teamed up together to ignite leadership
RetailU, the leading retail training platform that supports retailers invest in their field leaders through micro e-learning and customized virtual workshops, has teamed up with the One Voice One Team, a non-profit organization providing youth leadership workshops, assemblies, and community service programs in order to empower the youth of today for a better tomorrow.
Sabral says, "Supporting One Voice One Team is a natural fit for RetailU. Many retail first-time employees are students, some even grow into managers. OVOT develops their leadership skills, the work OVOT are doing is incredible and making a huge impact not only on the students but also supports teachers, which is necessary today".
To launch this ongoing partnership, RetailU will donate 50% of all membership sales through February to One Voice One Team. Sabral says our goal is to help 400 youth in Winnipeg attend the OVOT program. Learn more HERE.
Orlando Bowen, the founder of One Voice One Team, says, "We believe that, despite their challenges, all youth can make the most out of their circumstances if they are given support, guidance, and opportunities for growth. Numerous issues plague youth today: such as unemployment, suicide, gang involvement, mental health challenges, and more. At One Voice One Team, we empower, inspire and facilitate opportunities for youth to be catalysts in creating a 'better tomorrow' today" "We are beyond excited to work with retailu. We have the same mission to develop future leaders."
In the last year, through the process of COVID and extreme lockdowns, retail and schools were hit hard. Sabral says," I saw my son struggle with online school" "We knew we had to step up and do something. Also, many first-time job seekers were not able to gain their first retail job. To launch this partnership, we are offering a special rate for a one-year membership. Managers looking to up-level their skills can get involved support us reach our goal while investing in themselves". "It is not enough to know about the issues we are facing today. We all need to step up and support local initiatives like this that need us."
This launches an ongoing partnership between RetailU and One Voice One Team.
