TESTIMONIALS

I have been thrilled to partner with Southwest Training Services, Inc. on numerous projects; for two summers our Teen Outreach has received student workers during the summer. The experience was a delightful one; not only did the teens receive expert preparation from Southwest Training Services, but they were monitored throughout their time with us and supported in the development of their work ethic. The benefits to our agency were obvious – we were given quality employees who added to our mission. The benefits to the young people were equally powerful – they were able to be part of our professional staff and were given insight into the real world of work.

As director of a Waynesburg area Summer Day Camp, through the Greater Waynesburg Christian Outreach, I have hired Southwest Training youth to serve as our Jr. Camp Counselors for the past 3 years. I love that local teens get the opportunity to give back to their own communities in this capacity, while earning invaluable job experience and wages. This program also helps us to manage the costs of providing a free, 6-week summer camp, by paying the wages of the youth we employ!

Thanks to this program I was able to reserve a spot with the funds you provided. God has been so good in putting me in this program and he has provided in many ways through SWTS. I hope that the Southwest Training Program can continue to touch lives as it has mine.
