Press release<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Batavia, N.Y. \u2013 Sponsors, led by businesses that have made hands-on impressions with hundreds of students, are once again stepping up to bring career exploration to GLOW With Your Hands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Genesee Construction, LandPro Equipment, and National Grid will be platinum sponsors for GLOW With Your Hands 2022, which is coming back to the Genesee County Fairgrounds in Batavia on September 27th, 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Launched in 2019, GLOW with Your Hands conducted the first hands-on career exploration event in which over 800 middle and high school students from 25 school districts in Genesee, Livingston, Orleans, and Wyoming counties learn about high-growth and high-demand career opportunities in agriculture, advanced manufacturing, and the skilled trades among others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cGLOW With Your Hands introduces students to careers that provide good paying jobs with excellent benefits and opportunities for growth that do not require 4 years of college and the expense of tuition that goes along with that,\u201d said GCEDC Vice President of Business and Workforce Development, Chris Suozzi. \u201cThe bottom line is that dynamic and growing companies in the GLOW region need skilled workers now. Sponsors like Genesee Construction, LandPro Equipment, and National Grid have recognized this and make investments that improve students\u2019 awareness and readiness in our region.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As of May 10, GLOW With Your Hands 2022 has received sponsorships from 20 manufacturing, skilled trades, agriculture, and food and beverage companies across the GLOW region. A full list of 2022 and past sponsors is available at GLOWWithYourHands.com\/sponsors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOur sponsors are one of the main reasons we have seen so much success and interest with GLOW With Your Hands these past few years,\u201d said GLOW Workforce Development Board Executive Director, Jay Lazarony. \u201cIt is important for our students to be exposed to companies that offer career opportunities in their own backyard rather than thinking they have to move somewhere else for a career opportunity.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hundreds of students will once again experience hands on activities and demonstrations to enhance their understanding and interest in careers at companies within the GLOW region. Exhibits and workplace simulations will include demonstrations of mechatronics, welding, brick laying, electrical lineman work and others. Students will be able to learn about careers in food packaging, veterinary sciences, animal nutrition and commercial trucking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe want GLOW students to embrace and learn about their career options before they graduate from high school and our corporate partners provide these students a chance to experience a trade or skill they have not encountered before,\u201d Suozzi continued.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
