Greenburgh Insider: Greenburgh student interns helping our local businesses and newly formed Chamber of Commerce.

 

Student intern David Diao discusses his internship, his experiences helping local businesses and his impressions on the radio interview.

During the last month and a half David Diao and  three other high school interns working for the Town of Greenburgh; Henry Peet and Austin Kirby of Dobbs Ferry High School and Ricky Pintado of Irvington High School, had gone door to door across Town reaching out to businesses on Central Ave, 119, E Hartsdale Ave and Saw Mill River Road. This was part of a program Scarsdale High School, Dobbs Ferry High School and Irvington High School has where seniors spend the last weeks of their high school years interning.  David, Henry, Austin and Ricky helped identify vacancies, they updated the town website- Greenburghny.com and encouraged businesses to join the Greenburgh Chamber of Commerce. At the first meeting of the Chamber about 50 people attended --thanks, in part to the work of the interns. They also tried to find out what businesses like about the town and what could be done in the future to make doing business in Greenburgh a better experience.

 

David was interviewed on my WVOX radio show recently -discussing his experiences as an intern and his efforts helping the business community. Listen to his interview here:
