We’re calling on our community to show up for the next generation of Indigenous leaders.
The Annual PXU-NAEP Career Expo Clothing Drive helps high school students step into their futures with confidence, style, and access to professional opportunities. Having options for professional clothing attire allows students to feel prepared, seen, and empowered when an opportunity comes their way!
One of the most loved parts of the Career Expo is when students get to “shop” for their own professional outfits by choosing pieces that reflect their own personal style.
