An Atlanta-based nonprofit is expanding a mentorship program for high school and college students to prepare them for high-paying tech careers.

The Elaine Bryan Foundation recently brought together community advocates, elected officials and business leaders to celebrate its 16th anniversary.

The organization helps Georgia high school and early college students secure scholarships, jobs, and internships in science, technology, engineering and math.
