Programme: Young Entrepreneurs
Organisation: YE Foundation partnered with SAGE Foundation, VW Community Trust, Sibaya Community Trust, MMI Foundation and Spur Foundation
Type of Support
Programme Description
Young Entrepreneurs programmes is designed to encourage entrepreneurial thinking and financial literacy to spark the entrepreneurial spirit in young people. We inspire the young to live their dreams, and make up for the gaps left by an educational system that ill prepares students for the world of work and business. We also help them start and grow their own micro-enterprises in a fun and experiential way.
Cultivating entrepreneurship in the young is vital, as children are born imaginative, energetic, and willing to take risks, but without entrepreneurial education, the enterprising spirit of children dramatically declines over time and is almost non-existent by the time they graduate from high school.
