✨ Since our founding in October 2020, we have organized 1 entrepreneurship and 4 financial literacy camps for over 300 teens from 36 countries across 5 continents. We have been able to teach teens about various personal finance and social entrepreneurship concepts, connect them with inspiring guest speakers, and engage them in fun activities. EmpowerEcon has gained recognition for its work on international media outlets such as Forbes Magazine and Next Gen Personal Finance, and we have also recently started a chapter program ✨
Now, we are going to be hosting our SECOND annual entrepreneurship camp! You will have the chance to learn about entrepreneurship, then work with a team to launch your OWN venture! Not only will you take an idea you are passionate about and bring it to life, but you will also get to meet and make friends with other teens from across the world, network with successful entrepreneurs, and more!
In 2021, our entrepreneurship camp gathered 60 participants who collectively created over 23 projects! Topics ranged from climate change to educational equity to mental health—a reflection of youths' ability to use entrepreneurship as a tool to create a better future 💛
Now, we are so excited to amplify this impact and reach more communities, and hope that you will join us for the journey!
