01What it does

What Genesys Works Group Return Dba Genesys Works does

Mission

To provide pathways to career success for high school students in underserved communities through skills training, meaningful work experiences, and impactful relationships.

As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.

Program

  1. Genesys works, as the parent organization, provides leadership and central services to subsidiaries included in genesys works group return (ein #90-0757035), enabling them to successfully carry out the mission of changing the trajectory of inner-city high school students by providing them with training, meaningful internships, mentorships, and assistance in finding and obtaining both college entrance and scholarships. The information technology, engineering drafting, accounting, and professional skills training allows our students to intern at major corporations, mostly fortune 1000, in the houston, twin cities, chicago, bay area, new york city, tulsa, jacksonville, and national capital region metropolitan areas. At the conclusion of our 14-month program, over 95% of those who complete the program go on to post-secondary education, as compared to only half the graduates from inner-city schools. 80% of all graduates are either still actively engaged in college or have finished their degree.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $8.0M arriving through sponsors registered in 1 state is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been.
