Hire4Ed Work-Study: Small Things Make a Big Difference In the words of Mother Teresa, “Not all of us can do great things. But we can do small things with great love.” It’s not just the major financial contribution our Hire4Ed Work-Study companies provide that makes the program a success...it’s also the small things done with great love. It starts with what our committed supervisors do on a daily basis. By being punctual, dressing professionally, and doing their jobs well, our supervisors act as great role models that instill confidence in our students and transform the way our the way our students view work. In little ways, like remembering a student’s birthday, taking a student to lunch to celebrate academic success, or holding a student worker accountable for a simple mistake, supervisors teach our students the importance of building relationships at work and gives them a sense of job well done. We partner with 90 companies and organizations and hundreds of employees. We’ll never know all the little things they do to make a big difference in our students’ lives. We are grateful to them for helping to prepare our students for life. One student said it best when she said, “My supervisor always makes me feel confident and pushes me to do more. To her I have potential” Meg Brudney Executive Director, Hire4Ed Part of the Leonard, Street and Deinard Family Brianna Gay ’13 was part of the first team of student workers to join the legal firm Leonard, Street, and Deinard in 2010, the year the firm joined the Hire4Ed work-study program. After a year working in the Records Department, she joined the Human Resources (HR) Team, led by Heidi Burton, Director of HR. Brianna quickly became an important and highly valued member of Burton’s team. “There has always just been this comfort level with ‘Bri’ coming into our department. She comes to her job with a positive attitude—high energy, willing to learn, willing to pick up whatever it is that we need her to do.” Brianna assists HR assistant, Katie, to manually enter resumes received in HR. It’s not Brianna’s favorite task, but she understands how even the simplest task is important to her team. “It makes me feel better when I enter the resumes for Katie, because then she doesn’t have a whole ton of work on her back.” Burton introduced Brianna to the Director of Research Services. The director volunteered to support Brianna in her college search. She helped Brianna research schools, connect with alumni and even develop a timeline for her college application process. Through the Hire4Ed program at the firm, Brianna found more than a job; she feels part of something special. “At Leonard, Street and Deinard, it’s not just like working with co-workers; it’s like they are my family.” Leonard, Street, and Deinard is a champion of the Hire4Ed program. They are committed to developing our students and it is paying off. Brianna plans to go to law school and become a immigration lawyer. We and Brianna can’t thank them enough. 6
Students worked in 90 companies and organizations throughout the Twin Cities. Our students work hard! They earned $1.6 million – almost 50% of the total cost of their education. But students acquire so much more through their Hire4Ed jobs. One student recently shared, “My Hire4Ed job has made a better student, a better worker, and overall I am more mature than I ever was.” THANK YOU Hire4Ed companies and supervisors for all you do for our students and Cristo Rey Jesuit High School.
