About

A program of Enlight Unite Foundation.

Entrepreneurs United is one of the ways Enlight Unite Foundation pursues its mission: storytelling, content creation, and positive social impact, built around the people doing the work, not the institutions around them.

Why this program exists

High school is the moment where young people start figuring out what they actually care about, what they're good at, and how they want to spend their time in the world. Entrepreneurs United gives them a real project to do that with. An online store they own, products they choose, a cause they believe in, and a community to sell into.

We're not trying to teach entrepreneurship in the abstract. We're trying to put the actual reps in front of students: tell your story, pick what matters, ship it, learn from what happens.

About the foundation

Enlight Unite Foundation is a nonprofit focused on storytelling, content creation, and positive social impact. Entrepreneurs United is one of the foundation's programs. Funds raised by student stores support the causes students choose, and the foundation operates the program itself with separate funding so 100% of cause proceeds can go where they're intended.
