Business Kits for Kids

Empowering youth social entrepreneurship

We teach social entrepreneurship, or the act of creating a business that solves a social problem or benefits society. Social entrepreneurship education transforms youth into critical thinkers and enthusiastic dreamers, empowering them with the tools they need to shape and influence the world around them.

As a result of this work, we are proud to have won a 2021 Force for Positive Change award. The statewide competition recognized social entrepreneurship as a model for solving social or environmental challenges in a way that is sustainable, just and generates impactful change in Wisconsin.

Through hands-on, interactive, vibrant curriculum grounded in the real world, we inspire higher academic engagement and achievement while nurturing skills necessary for college and career success.

Financial Wellness

We teach money management fundamentals that set up youth for long-term success. They learn to make smart money decisions, practicing earning, budgeting, saving, and spending wisely. Through our programs, youth also start to build income, earning more than they might at an entry-level summer or after-school job.
