Empowering Young Entrepreneurs: Tools for Success

Help me give my students a sublimation printer, heat press and other hands-on materials that will enhance their learning experience and allow them to create and market real products. Empower the next generation of business leaders and innovators!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Keri's classroom raised $984

My Project

My students are young entrepreneurs eager to turn their business ideas into reality! Through our entrepreneurship course and DECA competition, they develop essential skills in business planning, marketing, and financial literacy. However, they lack access to the resources needed to bring their projects to life.

This project will provide hands-on learning experiences that bridge the gap between theory and practice.

By equipping students with these tools, they will develop skills in branding, sales, financial management, and marketing strategy. Additionally, these materials will support their participation in DECA competitions, where they will pitch their ideas to industry professionals and gain real-world experience.

Your donation will directly impact the future success of these students by fostering creativity, problem-solving, and entrepreneurial mindsets. Thank you for believing in the power of education and innovation!
