Kinnect Scholars Program

The Kinnect Scholars Program invites 10th graders to apply for a three-year experience featuring:

Mentorship

Each student is paired with a Kith employee mentor based on shared interests, with mentors from various departments like design, logistics, and footwear. Upper management mentors involve their teams, giving students hands-on experience and broader insights into the fashion industry.

Internship

Students complete a 6-week summer internship at Kith retail stores, gaining real-world experience, interacting with customers, and developing communication and time management skills.

Scholarship

Students receive personalized guidance from a college advisor to identify the best college matches, navigate the application process and   maximize financial aid for their education. Qualified students can apply for our College Bridge Grants.

Workshops

We extend our offerings through this program by hosting workshops on topics that the students aren't typically taught in school. Topics include financial literacy, college readiness, professional development and personal development. Students consistently participate in these workshops throughout the first 2 years of the program, but they have continued access to our workshop leaders.

These workshops are led by our Kinnexperts:
