KJK proudly hosted Dau’nijah (“Nijah”) during the 2024-2025 school year as part of the Saint Martin de Porres Corporate Work Study Program. A rising sophomore, Nijah supported KJK’s Office Services team, gaining hands-on experience in a professional setting while developing valuable workplace skills.
The Corporate Work Study Program provides students with early exposure to the working world, preparing them for life beyond high school through meaningful placements with local businesses and organizations. KJK is honored to support this mission and provide a space where students like Nijah can grow, contribute and explore potential career paths.
KJK Partner Jon Groza, a proud member of Saint Martin de Porres High School’s Board of Directors, plays an active role in strengthening this important partnership. His ongoing support reflects the firm’s broader commitment to investing in Cleveland’s future and empowering young people throughout Northeast Ohio.
At the conclusion of her internship, Nijah shared a creative reflection on her experience, highlighting her enthusiasm and growth throughout the year:
Experience – what is life about
Work study to earn my clout
When I recycle a file
I go the extra mile
Through Corporate Work Study I lend a helping hand
Learning the skills I’ll need to
One day run the Land
KJK extends its sincere thanks to Nijah for her contributions and looks forward to continuing its collaboration with Saint Martin de Porres High School in the years ahead.
