OUR STORY
Providing Innovative Solutions to Community Issues
Soon after beginning Ransom ReProgram in 2015, we realized the need for participants to be able to rapidly attach to a job and have a source of income. Our leadership began praying about ways we could create an employment social enterprise (ESE),
and Ransom Recycling was born.
An ESE is a social enterprise or a business with a social mission that applies commercial strategies to maximize social impact. An ESE embeds a transitional jobs program into its social enterprise to more effectively serve marginalized populations.
AN EMPLOYMENT SOCIAL ENTERPRISE
ABOUT RANSOM RECYCLING
Recycle provides eligible ReProgram participants and/or graduates, the opportunity to work in an entry-level position, and be mentored while recycling electronics. They have the opportunity to earn a legitimate wage while getting the life skills, and job readiness training that will help them become an excellent employee. The goal is to prepare our participants, to obtain a better job in their chosen career field. We want them to excel, and become all God created them to be.
Ransom uses the "ABC Model" in Recycling
A
ANY JOB
Participants in ReProgram work in Recycling to practice while learning in the classroom.
B
BETTER JOB
Graduates are connected with local businesses through Ransom Staffing Services
C
CAREER
Long term success is achieved when former participants sustain a fulfilling career.
The ESE facilitates employment for those unlikely to be employed in the competitive job market then transitions these workers to better employment opportunities.
