Please join us for a benefit dinner to support Hartford’s Youth Service Corps and recognize the leadership of Mayor Luke Bronin
In response to Hartford’s youth unemployment crisis, Mayor Bronin pledged during the first year of his new administration to partner with the community to connect Hartford’s young people to part-time, yearlong employment, along with supports to achieve their educational and career goals.
Since its launch in 2016, the City of Hartford has partnered with Our Piece of the Pie (OPP) to provide nearly 2,000 Hartford youth, ages 16-24, with an opportunity to earn a paycheck while strengthening their neighborhoods. Proceeds from the benefit dinner will ensure OPP is able to continue supporting Hartford’s young people through Hartford Youth Service Corps.
