    We know that talent is distributed equally across the globe - just not opportunity.

    Young adults face many obstacles, including poor services and a lack of resources and support. These obstacles leave few good options, including bad jobs or unemployment, that often lead to low income and no assets.

    But for under-served young adults passionate about launching their business idea, entrepreneurship can change this.

    We know that talent is distributed equally across the globe - just not opportunity.

    Young adults face many obstacles, including poor services and a lack of resources and support. These obstacles leave few good options, including bad jobs or unemployment, that often lead to low income and no assets.

    But for under-served young adults passionate about launching their business idea, entrepreneurship can change this.

    Youth Business USA, a 501(c)3 nonprofit, provides business literacy education developed specifically for young entrepreneurs, including training in business planning, modeling and startup methodologies. Every Young Entrepreneur that completes our training receives an interest-free loan for the equipment and inventory necessary to launch their micro business. We help our Young Entrepreneurs recruit a volunteer Board of Advisers who act as mentors. In their first year, our Young Entrepreneurs grow their businesses, reimburse their loans and can qualify for additional financing and on-going support.

    Our vision is to become the first online micro business accelerator for under-served young adults in the United States. We provide virtual entrepreneurship education, online financing and remote mentoring support so that we can serve more entrepreneurs at scale for a lower cost.
