EXXONMOBIL KICKS OFF LIFT
ExxonMobil officially kicked off the second cohort of its education initiative, Leaders Inspiring the Faces of Tomorrow (LIFT). The initiative pairs 26 middle school students with mentors to promote career readiness and academic success, with a focus on introducing students to careers in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) within the energy industry. This year’s program will focus on Istrouma Middle Magnet School, enrolling 26 mentees, half of whom are returning students eager to continue their STEM education journey. Volunteers from 100 Black Men of Baton Rouge serve as mentors for the LIFT initiative, offering weekly sessions focused on academic and personal development.
