Entrepreneurship Month
If you're an entrepreneur... we need you!! This is a great opportuntiy with a short time commitment for local entrepreneurs to get in the classroom. Share how you made, or are currently making, the step to be a business owner!
The whole experience is one session, one class. (About 1 hour) Make the difference in a young student's life by sharing your story, experiences, struggles, celebrations and wisdom. If you love it, we welcome you to visit more than one classroom! This is great practice for sharing your business story with others.
Contact Melissa Gleason to learn more and connect with a local class.
