As Board Chair of Opportunities for a Better Tomorrow (<a href="http://www.obtjobs.org/" style="color: rgb(5, 99, 193); text-decoration: underline;" class="">www.obtjobs.org</a>) I am really proud of the work we do in providing training and career pathways
for young adults in underserved communities. For over 40 years, OBT has provided workforce training to thousands of \u201copportunity youth,\u201d generally ages 17-24, many of whom come from disadvantaged backgrounds, We presently provide training in Cloud Support
Engineering and Digital Marketing, Health Care Administration, Construction, Hospitality, and general business opportunities, and open the pathways to high school equivalency diplomas, college, internships and hopefully living wage jobs. I invite you to peruse
our \u201cBuilding Futures\u201d brochure, at<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><a href="https://issuu.com/opportunitiesforabettertomorrow/docs/building_futures" style="color: rgb(5, 99, 193); text-decoration: underline;" class="">https://issuu.com/opportunitiesforabettertomorrow/docs/building_futures</a>.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span><o:p class=""></o:p></div>

We have a virtual fundraising event on Tuesday, May 18, 2021 from 6pm to 7pm \u2013 one hour, to learn more about what we do and why. I promise you this is like no other Zoom event you have attended \u2013 real people, real stories, real impact. I would love to see
you there, and am immensely proud to extend this invitation, to ask you to help me expand the reach of opportunity to new levels.

and join us any way you can, whether by direct financial help, or by becoming involved in our 40-year mission of providing promise and opportunity, or perhaps hiring our graduates for no-cost internships or jobs. Or perhaps you could introduce us to your
company\u2019s corporate giving team. <o:p class=""></o:p></div>

If you can\u2019t make it next Tuesday, I hope you consider including OBT in your personal charitable giving \u2013 we\u2019ve had a heck of a ride this past year due to Covid-19 and have successfully transitioned our training programs to 100% virtual attendance, which has
expanded our reach many times over. We are presently designing our return to in-person training, and could very much use your help in taking OBT to the next level.<o:p class=""></o:p></div>

As an immigrant myself, I\u2019m reminded every day that our successes have been achieved because someone, in some way, helped us. I hope you join me in thanking those who helped us by paying it forward. <o:p class=""></o:p></div>
