Colgate Cares Day/Mentoring Madness is especially critical during the last 18-months when students have been limited in their interactions with college and career professionals. Volunteers will be presenting to students in panel format, using a secured virtual platform, such as Google Meet or Zoom.
CFES Brilliant Pathways will connect employee volunteers at Colgate-Palmolive with students in grades 7-12 across our sites around the country. The virtual event will give students in rural and urban areas an opportunity to interact with and learn from professionals about their college and career pathways, Essential Skills for success, and Colgate careers.
