Introduce a Girl to Infrastructure
Five Days Can Change a Life
The HOYA Foundation started Career Week for GIRLs TM to encourage more young women to pursue careers in transportation and construction. Why? Because only 10% of the construction work force is women. That fact carries economic implications and substantial opportunities.
Over one week, girls – ranging from 13 to 20 years old – make five stops to engage with women, ask questions and tour work sites. Each company puts together a day long insight into their company and into the industry.
