Our Warren Miller Freedom Foundation mentors report that guiding a group of students as they develop and run a small business is an extraordinarily fulfilling and rewarding experience. Mentors come from all walks of life and do not necessarily have to be experienced business persons. The supplied WMFF Mentor Guide is written in a simple straightforward way that enables anyone with a strong desire to work with young people and adults to run the class. The mentor acts as a coach, encouraging progress with the businesses and sharing knowledge and activities as they move forward. Our mentors are often college students or business professionals wishing to give back to the community. Everything is prepared for the mentor in the guide and the student activity workbook.

“My experience has been rewarding on many different levels. Delivering the Young Entrepreneur Program on behalf of the Warren Miller Freedom Foundation has provided me with a platform to change the lives of young people. I’ve had the pleasure to see first hand the power of knowledge and transformation. Over the course of delivering the YE program I’ve seen youth take charge and make a commitment to success and independence. The curriculum provides the blue print for success, and once the teens begin to apply the valuable lessons to their own lives the transformation begins. The youth become empowered and develop a persona of achievement. To be part of such a powerful transformation in a teen’s life is priceless; the lessons which the Young Entrepreneurs program provides are lessons of life and success. It has been a rewarding experience to know I have been part of something so special.”
