Cornerstone Career Center (CCC) is a dynamic nonprofit organization based in South Dallas, established with the mission of transforming the lives of individuals from underserved communities. Our aim is to equip individuals who are unemployed and under-employed with the skills, resources, and support they need to build meaningful and sustainable careers, empowering them to secure employment, excel in their fields and make a lasting impact on their families and communities.
We seek funding to support our students with supplies, stipends/incentives, transportation, clothing, and food/snacks during their time in class. We also are seeking funding to support the housing needs of students who face homelessness.
