Aspiring Youth Academy Executive Director Campaign

As the youth program director for the AZ Hispanic Chamber of Commerce for the past five years, I am proud to be working with the Chamber again to expand their dedication and promise to the next generation of entrepreneurs and business owners through the Aspiring Youth Academy. 

Through our three programs, we will be able to reach middle and high school kids interested in entrepreneurship no matter what stage or level they are in.  From kids who are curious about whether or not business ownership/entrepreneurship is for them, to kids who have business ideas, to kids who are ready to launch; we have a program to help them exactly where they are and bring them to the next level.

Through the AZ Tax Credit donations, we are able to serve more than 300 kids in the Phoenix community at no cost to their families.  During these particularly challenging times, we are also able to provide our programs virtually through robust systems; and we still have our highly impactful in-person learning ready to go as soon as it is safe to do so.

Thank you for helping us education, encourage, support and grow the next generation of entrepreneurs and create a bigger, brighter future for the entrepreneurial kids in our community!
