We are so proud to be able to provide such a unique and exciting opportunity for young people to get a head start on their futures through this Dream Job Experience Campaign.

In addition to providing its workplace experience, Refinery29 will also serve as the media partner of the Dream Jobs campaign.
Planned Parenthood is such a critical institution right now, providing unparalleled access to affordable care and education, said Piera Gelardi, Executive Creative Director and Co-Founder at Refinery29. At Refinery29, we are honored to partner with them on this campaign to expand access and opportunities for people at all levels.
