 At Sailor Academy, we are a non-profit initiative committed to breaking down the barriers to high quality education for people worldwide by providing access to higher education and skills learning to anyone, anywhere, anytime. As a part of this mission, we have partnered with Central Union Mission. Central Union Mission, which helps men out of homelessness, uses our free courses to teach students customer service, professional etiquette, leadership, and other skills to prepare them for employment. Central Union Mission is the oldest continually operating social service agency in the city. We were formed in 1884 to help the needs of homeless Civil War vets on Pennsylvania Avenue. Now, most people know us as a homeless shelter, which is at 65 Mass Avenue in the city. Normally 170 men spend the night here every night. We serve breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and we provide a number of wraparound services to help folks transition from living on the streets to hopefully stable and productive members of society who are reconnected with their families. We're focused on, as it relates specifically to workforce development, and economic permanence. And that is to say, not just providing them with employment, but providing them with long-term livable wage employment that would then lead to true systemic change in their life. The Education and Pathways program was designed really to help the guys once they start to become stable and to really get into a normal, quote a normal, whatever that is, routine, to educate themselves so that they can apply for jobs and they can be eligible for consideration. And that's what Pathways is. It takes the guys and helps them find that path to financial independence. And so one course, one individual, which is really how this took on, because we didn't want to force anything on anyone. We wanted to introduce it and see if it would be attractive. And it was indeed like a bar of chocolate for one particular individual who just started chugging away at one course, Communication Customer Service. And as he started to be noticed because of his success in taking these courses, it became, it had this domino effect. I have successfully completed six Sailor Academy certificates. One in Customer Service, Professional Etiquette, Resume Writing, Interviewing Skills, Microsoft Word, and Microsoft Excel. I took a seven Sailor Academy course. So far I have seven and I'm still working on a couple 17 so far. And I'm so grateful for that because I try to lead by example and motivate others because when you're paying for college or whatever, I know how difficult that is. So I felt like, why not take advantage of the opportunity? So I just dig in and I go for it and I don't stop. And I'm not done yet. My goal is 30 so. Sailor is like a giant home run. We look for ways to educate and to encourage the guys to learn more. And the beauty of Sailor is they can do it during class time. They can do it on their own. So it provides them an opportunity to learn. It also, the thing about Sailor that's been so great for us is that it provides a wide variety of class professional development types of programs. And, you know, I really don't think I'm giving Sailor or anyone else more credit than Stu. Sometimes you do need just a kind of Sailor to kind of open the door to what's possible. Oh, I think it's been unbelievable, really, because it has augmented the programming that we have and provided another outlet for the guys to learn. And so it makes our program stronger. Because what happened is we were able to have the flexibility to adapt Sailor in a way that met the persons that we get to work with every day. For me, it's like totally like changing experience through Sailor Academy. So I'm looking forward to how far I can go. And what I want to do is motivate others and let them see the opportunities that are there for them so that they can take advantage of those because Sailor, especially Sailor Academy, and I tell everyone, it's like a blessing. So. Leveraging open education, Sailor Academy is opening doors to opportunities for students, organizations, communities, and nations. But we can't do it alone. Work with us and help to make high quality education accessible to people around the world.
