PEPP NEEDS PARTNERS

PEPP is a public-private partnership between Penn State Erie and the Erie School District. The program is administered by Penn State Erie, with approximately 50 percent of the funding coming from the College. The remaining 50 percent of the program costs are covered through the Erie School District and donations from individuals, organizations, foundations and the private sector. In addition to financial support, companies provide volunteers who mentor PEPP students and provide job shadowing, field trips, and other career-related activities.
