Entrepreneurship is the most common career path in the United States. Yet schools have few resources to teach young people how to navigate the entrepreneur journey. Educators looking to help their students build entrepreneurial skills are often hampered by small budgets, time constraints, and limited access to quality resources that engage and inspire students.
That’s where YIPPEE comes in. An initiative of Burton D. Morgan Foundation—a champion of entrepreneurship for more than five decades—YIPPEE mirrors the enterprising mindset it seeks to empower in K-12 students.
Launched in 2022, this unique platform offers a balanced value proposition to all who participate:
Providers of innovative educational materials and experiences can bring resources to market easily and affordably, giving you direct access to your target audience.
Educators can secure unique and creative curricular resources to develop the skills your students will need in today’s fast-paced, rapidly evolving business landscape.
Sponsors can target priorities and support learning opportunities consistent with your values and interests.
It takes a village to raise an entrepreneur.
YIPPEE is dedicated to skill-building and educator choice. It is cost-effective and impactful. When providers, educators, and sponsors work together, the real beneficiaries are the students—who unlock the knowledge, capabilities, and opportunities to forge their own paths.
