A fundraising campaign for Jannus, Inc.

You can help Global Talent Idaho build a stronger community this Idaho Gives Day! Join our mission and support talented, highly skilled refugees and other immigrants move beyond low-wage survival jobs to reclaim professional careers, and help build a brighter economic future for Idaho.

Here's our success over the past three years:

  • 72 job seekers placed, reclaiming their interrupted careers
  • 46 active job seekers currently in our program
  • $27K/year average income gained from full time job placements
  • $1.5 million+ economic impact for Idaho annually                                                    

Global Talent Idaho provides 1:1 coaching, training and a team of volunteers that:

prepare job seekers for interviews and professional networking

help job seekers identify career options and pathways in Idaho and navigate an Idaho job search

connect job seekers with licensing, credentialing and educational opportunities
