CAREER EXPO

This event is made possible by the generous donation of our host sponsor, Fordham University.

Our 5th annual WONDER GIRLS Career Expo provides an opportunity for our girls to be on a college campus, to explore a variety of career opportunities and to learn what it takes, including the required academic route, to pursue a career in a variety of industries.  Fordham University professors will host a workshop on careers in environmental studies and sustainability, and additional expert speakers will host two mini-workshops on "Money Matters: Financial Literacy” and a “How to” in The Power of Networking, and Professional Etiquette. Following this, the girls will engage in an interactive networking experience known as FAST TRACK, where they have the opportunity to connect with more than 30 diverse professionals from various fields, colleges, jobs/ intern opportunities and trade schools. 

Raffle prizes will be given out to students and a $1,500 scholarship will be granted to one of our WG seniors! 

This event is closed to the public. Thank you to our sponsors!
