About Inspire WI
At Inspire WI, we believe every student deserves a chance to explore the world of work before choosing a career. As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, we connect students with local employers and educators, creating hands-on experiences that bring learning to life.
From career experiences and industry immersions, our programs let students see what different careers are really like. They get to ask questions, try out skills, and imagine themselves in roles they might never have considered—opening doors to opportunities they didn’t know existed.
By connecting schools and businesses, Inspire WI helps students gain confidence, build workplace skills, and discover paths that fit their passions. Every experience is designed to inspire curiosity, spark learning, and prepare the next generation for a successful future.
Our Mission
Provide all students in WI with meaningful career based learning experiences through Inspire WI and employers with the opportunity to support the cultivation of the next generation of talent.
Our Vision
Our Vision is that all students graduate with an inspiring and realistic academic and career plan informed by connections and experiences provided through Inspire.
