Entrepreneurship training for teens & young adults
Micro grants for micro businesses

Project Description
Micro Entrepreneur Space is committed to providing free capital and resources to youth and young adults in search of micro-funding, mentorship, or business education to start their own businesses. Primarily focused on youth and young adults in marginalized communities to educate them on starting a small business at any age and with minimal resources to end the cycle of generational poverty.
We are developing workshops and seminars to deliver remotely and in person to K-12, secondary, and post-secondary schools and organizations to teach about starting a small business with the resources and mentorship we will provide at no cost to those in need. Our primary focus will be on Title 1 schools and communities with a disproportionate number of families at or below the poverty line.
Students who participate in the workshops will be encouraged to write a business plan for a small business they'd like to start and submit it for support and funding to Micro Entrepreneur Space. We will also offer basic supplies and equipment on an as-needed basis to those serious about breaking free from poverty.
As a certified life coach and entrepreneur, I will train students to look beyond their experiences to date and what they have seen in their immediate family and focus on the skills they are passionate about and how they can create a service or product that will benefit their community while also earning income for themselves and their families.
Thank you so much for your consideration!
Kris, Founder of Micro Entrepreneur Space
