What it Costs
At Prodigy, young people are building careers, confidence, and community. An apprenticeship here costs about $17,000 per apprentice—covering hands-on coaching, professional development, and certifications that open doors to opportunity. It’s like a year of technical college, but with real-world experience and a direct path into a career.
Our coffeehouse helps sustain the program, covering operational costs and ensuring apprentices earn living wages as baristas and shift leads.
But it’s generous donors like you who make the real difference. Your support provides the training, job development, mentorship, and personal growth needed for apprentices to build a future of sustained economic mobility.
Give today and be part of their journey.
