Become a Business Partner through the LYDIA Urban Academy Work Study Program.
Partnering with LYDIA Urban Academy provides a business with one or two entry-level workers without the hassles of payroll and taxes: LYDIA covers the insurance for the student as well as the payroll taxes and deducations. In addition, each student worker is assigned a faculty-advocate job coach to assist the on-site supervisor. The program is a WIN for the business (
supervised entry-level workers), a WIN for the student (experience and financially contributing to the cost of their private school education), and a WIN for LYDIA Academy (providing up to one-third of the student's educational cost).
Become a Scholarship Partner. Individuals and businesses can support the education of our future work force through monthly tax-deductable contributions.
