Over four weeks, students will connect virtually with high schoolers from Bright Start Africa-Sierra Leone and Armitage Boarding School in the Gambia in Africa exploring foundational business concepts like management and finance before designing and pitching business ideas to address global issues of importance to them: gun violence, racism, world hunger, and poverty. Last year, these business ideas included a music concert that would donate profits to organizations addressing gun violence, cultural parties that would spread cross-cultural awareness and acceptance, writer workshops that would help fund charities combating world hunger, and classes that would remove barriers to financial literacy.
