Kaléidoscope Social Impact

Youth Entrepreneurship Success (YES) Program

The YES Program is a learning program for youth to build skills through entrepreneurship. Youth engage in the community to increase their knowledge of social enterprise and entrepreneurship while get to developing their own ideas into a micro-business or community project.

We listen to the concerns of youth and support them in becoming changemakers!

The YES programs helps youth explore meaningful ways to address issues they care about.

We create opportunities for youth to engage in positive change while inspiring self drive and motivation.

Throughout the summer youth work together to:

✔ Learn about social enterprise

✔ Practice teamwork

✔ Create fun marketing strategies

✔ Make an action plan

✔ Build skills in sales & communication

✔ Grapple with the math of business
