YOU CAN COUNT ON THE EXIT FOUNDATION

We are financed through a mixed model. We have the support of private companies that collaborate with our programs, as well as contributions from social entities and collaborations.

We also receive public funding through government grants and European programs.

All of these resources go directly to boosting our programs to reduce early school dropout rates. Each year we audit and openly publish our accounts and agreements. They can be consulted here.

In the Employment Program of Fundación Exit our objective is to help young people in situations of social vulnerability to access the labor market.

To this end, we accompany young people in their job search process, offering guidance to improve their résumé, prepare for interviews and develop their personal brand. We connect young people with real job offers through the collaboration with companies and the “la Caixa” Foundation’s Incorpora Program of the “la Caixa” Foundation..

We also provide follow-up and support throughout the job placement process to facilitate their incorporation into the labor market.

At Fundación Exit we have a professional professional team multidisciplinary team made up of specialists in education, psychology, communication, social project management and employment, who design and develop programs for socially vulnerable young people.

In addition, we have a Board of Trustees and an Advisory CouncilThese are made up of volunteers from different professional fields, who guide our strategy and guarantee the independence and good governance of the organization.

This set of teams provides us with a broad and complementary vision to connect the educational world with the world of work.

We also collaborate with a wide network of educational centers, companies, entities and volunteers who support our projects.

At Fundación Exit we promote corporate volunteering as a way to connect business professionals with young people who participate in our academic and professional orientation programs. Through different initiatives included in our Integral Orientation Program, volunteers share their experience and accompany young people in their personal and professional development process.

Depending on the activity, the level of dedication and participation varies:

• Speed Dating Reverse:

We organize group sessions in which young people from educational centers participate in dynamics and conversations with volunteer professionals to learn first-hand about different profiles and career paths. The activity takes place at the facilities of the collaborating company, is carried out during working hours and requires a dedication of approximately 5 hours.

• Project Coach:

We develop an individual accompaniment program in which we assign each young person a company volunteer who acts as his or her coach during the project’s itinerary. Throughout six structured sessions, we create a space of trust to work on interests, skills and future expectations through conversations, reflection dynamics and experiences of approaching the work environment, such as workshops, interview simulations or visits to the workplace.

With this accompaniment we seek to broaden horizons, strengthen the confidence of young people and help them make decisions about their academic and professional future. The total dedication for volunteers is approximately 20 working hours distributed throughout the six sessions.
