Mark your calendars and join us for STORM's 3rd Annual Grit & Growth Community Experience! This year's theme, “Who I Choose to Become, I Will Become,” referring back to our 1st annual theme celebrates the power of personal choice and transformation.

How You Can Help

 We invite you to pledge your support in one or more of the following ways. Please note that we will provide tables and chairs for all participants:

Volunteer: Assist with event setup, registration, or activity coordination. Your time and effort will help ensure the event runs smoothly and is a great experience for all attendees.

Be a Career Representative: Share your career journey and insights to inspire youth and guide them toward future opportunities. Whether you want to market your role in a business, showcase your personal brand (experience map), or discuss your college major or trade of choice, we encourage you to get creative and have fun! We provide the tables and chairs; you bring your passion and personality. Decorate your table with marketing materials, personal branding items, or even a simple poster board about your journey. Feel free to include treats or snacks to engage with the youth!

We would also love to add your company or organization to our promotional flyers and social media platforms as a valued supporter! Whether you choose to volunteer as a group or individually, we’d be excited to tag and highlight your involvement on our social media channels.
