LEMONADE STAND BOOTCAMP

Description

In the past 2 years, we devoted time to develop a program that is being used to teach the urban underprivileged youth about financial literacy and entrepreneurship which includes historical aspects of money, banking, and credit. In addition, the program helps with learning about marketing, branding, business development, and growth. In our program we use a blend of Kinesthetic, Auditory, Visual, and Physical learning methods, we captivate our audience and facilitate meaningful connections. After testing out the program on several groups of youth we found that the information retained by the youth that participated was about 70%. Giving them a better outlook on life and their futures.

This year, our initiatives include summer camps tailored to urban youth, where we have revamped our teaching approach to ensure engagement and prevent boredom. Furthermore, we prioritize the involvement of urban minority professionals who serve as relatable role models, inspiring the next generation toward success.
