New Jersey American Water (NJAW) has partnered with Hopeworks’ to bring GIS intern Leaundra McCullough to American Water for a full-time project at their Voorhees headquarters! Lily has been a key member of the GIS team at Hopeworks, and we will miss her, but mostly we are excited to see her take one big step toward reaching her dreams.
NJAW has been a highly-valued customer of Hopeworks for sometime now, and we are so excited to build and continue that partnership. We take a lot of pride in our interns at Hopeworks; we love to hear positive feedback about our businesses, but one of the most rewarding results is when customers want to hire our youth because they are such good employees and consistently produce high quality work. Partnerships like these are so valuable, both for the company and for our youth! Lily is very excited to be a part of NJAW, and we are grateful to be able to continue our business partnership with the company.
