Safe Alternative Foundation for Education

A career in construction as a women, is definitely a road less traveled, but all of us here at SAFE, and probably you as well, think that the amount of women in this industry should be greater than 11%.

In our construction technical exploration program, our ladies at Career Academy, make up a third of our class!

We are passionate about providing programming that will give young women a glimpse into the vast amount of rewarding careers inside the construction industry. A key piece is making connections between an idea, and a real experience.

If you are a women/know of any women within any position in the construction industry, we invite you to reach out to us. We’d love to share these experiences with all of our students. Thanks in advance!

This past weekend the SAFE kids, in partnership with the Cal Ripken Foundation, took a college tour of American University, in D.C. The kids had the opportunity to meet some very important people and be exposed to a glimpse of what college life is like, and what is expected of them. Our scholars were able to meet with the President of the University, who was in fact the first Female President of that institution. 😎We also met some pretty high-achievers who PATIENTLY answered EVERY 🫤 question that popped into our scholars heads. 🙌🏾 Two of our students actually networked with the D1 shooting guard, basketball player Adam Holod, who is just the nicest person and gave us an A1 tour. S/o to our science bio major/ speaker Trevon with dreds, he was the perfect ambassador for And getting back to Baltimore by 3pm on a beautiful day was the icing on the cake. And a s/o to Danielle Koon in the office of DEI, the passion she spoke with was infectious. Summers off to a great start wouldn’t you say.?!?! 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
