The inspiration for my nonprofit is because I have always been interested in businesses and I realized how little resources there were for youth to build businesses. I aim to give resources that are valuable to young entrepreneurs. I also know that youth lack the funds to do this, we aim to provide an seed funding gifts of upwards of $5,000.
How do you stay motivated?I stay motivated with the fact in my mind that, the work that I am doing for this nonprofit is helping youth. One of my core values is Youth Empowerment, youth are the future of the world.
What would you do with the $25,000?If I were to win $25,000, most of the money will go to my future career goal of being a real estate developer for a down payment on a property. And the rest would go to my nonprofit to build an online youth business platform that youth across America can build their businesses online and offer on demand merchandise and services all on our platform for no cost.
