Our Mission
Student Startup, Inc. is a nonprofit organization dedicated to equipping students with the knowledge, experience, and resources they need to build successful businesses today—and create value economically, socially, and spiritually throughout their lives.
WE BELIEVE IN:
- Hard work and personal responsibility.
- Character-building through real business experience.
- Entrepreneurship as a tool for early earnings and future success.
Why Student Startup?
Entrepreneurial education is limited—especially for teens from under-resourced communities.
That’s why we provide hands-on experience that gives students the real-world skills they need to succeed.
