Educators for Education (E4E) is a Pennsylvania Certified Small and Minority-Owned for-profit organization committed to serving urban communities through educational services, professional development, advocacy, and social support. E4E’s mission is to give students the tools necessary for success through education and real-world learning opportunities.

Since its launch in May 2013, E4E has developed customized programs to meet the specific needs of youth and families in their own communities, with a particular focus on partnering with schools and community-based organizations. As part of a two-generational approach, E4E works to engage families in a more meaningful way in the educational process and reform efforts. E4E has contracted and partnered with various social service and educational organizations since its inception. For the past several years, E4E has operated a School Year and Summer WorkReady program as one of the Philadelphia Youth Network’s (PYN) workforce development providers.

E4E is excited to announce that the City of Philadelphia has approved youth to work in-person this summer. E4E is gearing up for the 2022 youth summer job WorkReady Program and working with PYN to offer paid internships for youth ages 14-24 years old. The program will kick off on ‪Tuesday, July 5, 2022‬.‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬ Students will be paid through PYN at no cost to their places of employment.

The Summer 2022 WorkReady online application opened on February 15. We encourage participants to get ahead by completing the online application prior to joining. An enrollment session will take place on March 2 at 6:00 p.m. Join the Zoom Meeting through this link.


This year, youth will earn $11/hour for a total of $1,320, plus an early registration sign-on bonus of $150 if their application is completed as one of the first 5,000 city-wide.
