Help me go to Wharton's Entrepreneurship Program
Donation protected
Hello, my name is Noah, and I am asking for your support in helping me attend the "Essentials of Entrepreneurship" program at the Wharton Global Youth Program at the University of Pennsylvania. The program is highly competitive, with thousands of annual applicants. I am thrilled to have been one of the 75 accepted students.
However, the program tuition is expensive -- $7,500! When I applied, my parents agreed to send me IF I showed personal commitment by saving earnings from my after-school job at Winchester Hospital and planning a fundraising campaign...I need to be entrepreneurial. So, I am saving money and selling restored sneakers as a side business (check my biz Instagram @WoburnShoeShop). I have also contacted local foundations, corporations, and groups for tuition assistance. But I still need additional support!
As an aspiring Brazilian-American entrepreneur, this program is a fantastic opportunity to gain the knowledge, skills, and confidence to develop my entrepreneurial ambitions. I am a big dreamer and have launched three (small) businesses since 5th grade. My current area of interest is Real Estate Development and Urban Planning to create transformative change and positively impact communities.
I am grateful for your gift of support and tuition sponsorship. In return, I promise to update you on my progress throughout the program and share my experience. If I reach my fundraising goal, any additional funds will fund my next small venture, which I will share with you all.
Thank you for your time and consideration. Your support will help me achieve my dream of attending the Wharton Global Youth Program and growing my entrepreneurial skills.
