Hendricks CareerTek is an exciting initiative by the Hendricks Family Foundation, responding to a need in the Greater Beloit region for career development and education for area youths. This facility represents a commitment by the Hendricks Family and other committed leaders to innovation and education for students by making known the wonderful and viable career opportunities that exist in their own community.
“CareerTek is about exposure, exploration and opportunity. Hands-on exploration is a powerful tool in helping children understand their interests and strengths, and even what they don’t like. It helps them learn about the world around them and exposes them to the range of opportunities available in our community. Most importantly, it can help them map a path to a successful future after graduation.”
“Career Tek will create endless opportunities to help more youth of the Stateline achieve Great Futures!”
“You’d help guide and mold, but from the start, you wouldn’t be molding someone into something they don’t want to be”
“Most important is the success of our students, but if we can help our businesses along the way then we have done something”
