ABOUT LIVING VICKY:  Living Vicky is a non-profit that provides
online and in-person focused mentoring which prepares young women transitioning from high school to whatever comes next. Nearly half of all Americans aged 18–29 earn under the poverty line. College graduates have more debt than ever. The recession hit Millennials the hardest, who report losing more jobs than any other generation because of the economic downturn. And it’s only worse for young women. The gap between men and women with full-time employment is largest at this age, and those women who are employed are earning less than their male counterparts. Research has shown that women who have mentors are much more likely to find managerial positions. Living
Vicky matches program participants with mentors to help with their development and to overcome the disadvantages they face.
