Employer and Corporate Partners

COOP’s program is completely free for our participants. Each year we admit 2000+ fellows nationwide (with cohorts in the spring and fall) and we’re growing our reach each year.

Support our mission

COOP's corporate partners are key to closing the social capital and wage gap for underemployed and underrepresented college graduates.

Thanks to the support of our partners and funders, we have empowered 7,000+ first-generation graduates to build the skills, networks, and careers they deserve.

We are on track to serve 10,000 alumni by 2026, and we invite corporate sponsors to join us in achieving this ambitious goal.
