Exploring the power of the partnership with Karen, she shared, “The partnership between The JOBS Project and FIRST worked beautifully. It was proactive and organic and that really worked for the young people.

The JOBS Project has officially exceeded its 500 young people supported by the end of 2025 by supporting over 570 young people! To celebrate, Amazon and Barnardo’s co-hosted an Awards Night at Amazon’s head office. The young people very candidly shared their experiences and difficulties of finding meaningful work and how The JOBS Project gave them not only the skills but the confidence to thrive.
