SayPro, in collaboration with the United States Peace Corps, is integrating entrepreneurship education into primary and secondary schools. SayPro believes that teaching entrepreneurial skills early fosters creativity, leadership, and economic independence. This program includes lessons on problem-solving, teamwork, business planning, and innovation. SayPro designs age-appropriate modules that allow students to develop and pitch ideas, create prototypes, and manage mini-projects. Through real-life simulations and school-based enterprises, SayPro encourages students to see challenges as opportunities. SayPro helps students think like entrepreneurs—confident, resourceful, and solution-oriented.
SayPro empowers teachers with the tools and training needed to deliver entrepreneurship lessons in creative ways. With help from the Peace Corps, SayPro develops materials and games that align with national education standards. Activities include market days, idea fairs, and storytelling by local entrepreneurs. SayPro ensures students learn about risk, budgeting, and marketing in a hands-on manner. Even at a young age, learners begin to understand how businesses function and the value of innovation. SayPro believes entrepreneurial education cultivates resilience, as students learn to adapt and bounce back from setbacks. The goal is to prepare children not just for jobs—but to create them.
SayPro Charity NPO views youth entrepreneurship as a powerful tool against poverty and unemployment. In communities with limited job opportunities, SayPro equips young people with the mindset to start their own ventures. These skills are essential for self-reliance and community growth. With the Peace Corps, SayPro also connects students with local business mentors who share real-world experiences and advice. SayPro supports students to launch small-scale school businesses that benefit the community and provide learning experiences. SayPro ensures that both girls and boys are equally involved, promoting gender-inclusive innovation and participation. Entrepreneurship becomes a shared, empowering journey.
SayPro evaluates student progress through project showcases, reflection journals, and peer feedback. The results are impressive—students show increased confidence, initiative, and teamwork. SayPro plans to scale the program across regions and develop entrepreneurship clubs in schools. These clubs will receive ongoing mentorship and seed funding for projects. SayPro’s ultimate goal is to make entrepreneurship education a standard in all schools. Through this collaboration with the Peace Corps, SayPro is planting seeds of innovation that will bloom into economic empowerment and social change. SayPro is building future entrepreneurs who think big, act smart, and lead with purpose.
