The TIME for Financial Literacy & Business Education is NOW!
About the YoungBiz Foundation
The YoungBiz Foundation believes that every young person should
have the opportunity to learn about money and business through hands-on,
real-world experiences. Our goal is to equip and empower students
aged 8-19 by giving them the opportunity to participate in educational
programs that teach vital financial literacy, business, and entrepreneurship
skills.
This 501(c)(3) public charity has been
established by YoungBiz International to support the financial literacy
and entrepreneurship education needs of schools, organizations,
and young people who, without our help, would be unable to access
such educational programs.
YoungBiz International was founded in
2005, based on the USA staff's 10 years' experience within this
educational field. YoungBiz International also operates programs
in the United Kingdom, Hong Kong, China, South Korea, and a growing
list of other countries.
Although YoungBiz program fees are modest,
for some schools, organizations, and parents, they remain inaccessible.
The Foundation has been created with company support in response
to this need. It is hoped that the company's initial investment
will be substantially enhanced through the goodwill of businesses,
institutions, and individuals who recognize the crucial importance
of effective financial literacy, business, and entrepreneurship
education for this generation.
The YoungBiz Foundation Mission
The YoungBiz Foundation is a 501(c)(3) public charity serving economically-challenged
young people age 8-19 and schools, agencies, youth organizations,
and business entities that wish to provide practical, real-world
financial, business, and entrepreneurship education to foster the
future economic well-being of students from all social and ethnic
backgrounds.
