YouthBiz Sponsorship Opportunities

Recent studies  demonstrate that entrepreneurship education helps students develop skills that will help them in school and in life.  YouthBiz engages youth who live in poverty and who attend under-resourced schools, developing their mindsets and skills in new ways and through opportunities otherwise inaccessible in their schools or afterschool programs.

Support YouthBiz and enable youth to learn, think, speak, and act like an entrepreneur.  For more information about any of the programs listed below, contact Carolyn Stevens-Wood, at 303-320-3250 or cstevenswood@yacenter.org.
