The STAR Foundation is a tremendous organization…

...that teaches individuals how to succeed in the workplace and prosper. I especially love the attention they give their students around budgeting and money management to ensure that the wages they make will be managed well. Their students learn the computer, customer service and problem resolutions skills that are so critical to being successful. The STAR Foundation’s impact is truly valuable to the economic growth of our community.
