A Look Back: When Innovation Met Inspiration - Fall 2023

We're excited to share a transformative experience that recently opened new horizons for Build UP Community High School students, made possible through the generous sponsorship of Chick-fil-A!

Empowering Future Innovators

As part of our ongoing partnership with Build UP Community High School - the nation's first workforce development model providing low-income youth with career-ready skills - we organized an eye-opening field trip to Atlanta. This adventure perfectly complemented Build UP's innovative approach to combining career-focused education with practical skills training.

Behind the Scenes: Film Production Studio Tour

Our Build UP students received exclusive access to a professional arts and entertainment film production studio, where they:

• Explored the intricate world of movie-making

• Connected with industry professionals

• Witnessed how their classroom learning translates to real-world careers

• Gained insights into various production roles and responsibilities

Tomorrow's Technology Today: Sandbox VR Experience

At Sandbox VR Studio, Build UP students stepped into the future of entertainment:

• Engaged with cutting-edge virtual reality technology

• Discovered the intersection of technology and creative arts

• Explored potential career paths in the growing VR industry

• Experienced how innovation shapes modern entertainment

Partnership in Action

This field trip exemplifies the powerful collaboration between Poze Bazaar Foundation and Build UP Community High School. Together, we're creating meaningful experiences that align with Build UP's mission of providing career-ready skills through hands-on learning opportunities.

Making Dreams Accessible

We're incredibly grateful to Chick-fil-A at Vestavia Hills for sponsoring this experience. Their support ensures that Build UP students can access opportunities that expand their understanding of potential career paths in the arts and technology sectors.

Impact Beyond the Classroom

For Build UP students, who are already gaining valuable skills through paid apprenticeships and career-focused education, this experience provided a glimpse into how their current learning could translate into exciting future careers. It's exactly the kind of exposure that can transform aspirations into achievable goals.

As we reflect on this memorable day, we're reminded that every journey into the arts and technology world opens new doors for our youth. Through the generous support of partners like Chick-fil-A and the dedication of Build UP Community School, we're not just showing students what's possible – we're helping them build the bridge to get there. These are the moments that transform dreams into destinies, one student at a time.
