Project Wise Kid Healthy Kid gives the children of our community the ability, resources and confidence to create a product or service, while learning the basics of entrepreneurship. This youth entrepreneurship camp runs for five consecutive weeks and targets children throughout the community. It reaches a span of 100 children ages 9-12, while influencing over 20 university volunteers. Each child works one on one with mentors who helps teach them basic business concepts.

The first four weeks include classes that are designed to help children develop a business plan that will serve as a roadmap for the creation of a product or service business through: demonstrations and discussions, accompanied by guest speakers outline key business concepts. Upon successful completion of their business plan, they are rewarded with a capitol loan of $10.

On the last day of the camp we provide each child with the opportunity to market and sell their product or service at the Chico Farmers Market. This gives them the chance to flex their newly acquired entrepreneur skills, reach their financial goals and connect with the local business community. This Entrepreneurship program strives to give each child the knowledge, opportunity, and self reliance to become more successful individuals
