Tiffany Yau: Creating Social Entrepreneurial Curriculum to Empower Youth
Tiffany: Thanks for having me, Spiffy! From surveying 680 high school students, I found that many care about making a positive social impact and want to start a business, but many don’t know how or have the confidence to do either. The difference in these numbers is more stark in lower-income communities where 62% of students lack access or can’t afford an entrepreneurship education at their schools.

The charity's vision is for every child to create their own home library with personally selected brand-new books to keep and enjoy.
