A Youth Centered Approach
“We’re excited, because we have so many things bottled up, so many things we want to say, but we haven’t been really given the opportunity. Low-income schools don’t really have that type of budget to let us step out and advocate for these things.”
Cisa, Youth Entrepreneur
“The WeThrive program is giving us the opportunity and a budget to get us one step closer to solving these problems in our community. It feels so exciting knowing that a program really cares about children like us and will help us be advocates in our communities, to speak out and use our voice.”
Chelsea, Youth Entrepreneur
“WeThrive gave me the ability to do things I never thought I was capable of. Not only did I learn the ropes of becoming an entrepreneur, but I was taught how to speak to people and tools that could lead me to success in nearly any situation. WeThrive isn’t about creating a company, it’s about building opportunities that otherwise wouldn’t have been available.”
Megan, Youth Entrepreneur
