Our Mission is to help young men enter into well-paying
careers in the construction trades industries
through basic training, on site industry exposure, and
employment assistance that will ultimately
facilitate their financial independence.
The Master’s Apprentice (MAP) is a nonprofit social
enterprise created to connect trades industries
in need of qualified apprentices, foundations working to
reduce dependence on social programs, and
young men searching for an opportunity to succeed. The
Master’s Apprentice is unique in providing a
bridge over the opportunity divide between the young men
rooted in low income mindsets and the
growing need for apprentices in the skilled trades,
specifically Plumbing, Electrical, HVAC, Carpentry,
and Welding.
The MAP Program recruits young men 18-28 years old
from low income neighborhoods and pays
them an incentive of up to $150 per week to participate in a
8 week program which runs
Monday-Friday from 8am3pm. Courses include Basic Construction
Math, Financial Literacy, Work
Ethic, and Career Prep as well as hands on skill development
in our full scale Woodshop. Additionally,
participants get first hand exposure to the industry through
training facility and job site visits, industry
guest speakers, and inside job connections through our
network of corporate partnerships. The
apprentices will also graduate with a personal portfolio
containing a resume, letters of
recommendation, and the required documents and certificates
needed for entrance into their
selected trade. MAP assists participants through the job
search process and once hired, graduates will
receive a Tool Scholarship of up to $200 to cover the tools
and supplies needed to begin their new job
or apprenticeship program.
Our guiding verse is 1Thess 4:11-12(NIV): “Make it
your ambition to lead a quiet life, to mind your
own business and to work with your hands, just as we told
you, so that your daily life may win the
respect of outsiders and so that you will not be dependent
on anybody.”
