Our Solution
Through our program in Latin America, we’re changing what a learning experience can be for a child.
Our Work
Wisdom for Kids is a foundation that helps underprivileged kids in Latin America become entrepreneurs using their local resources.
The Foundation is made up of volunteers, called Angels
Here’s a 5-step process every Angel goes through to help the kids in need:
1. Angels identify pockets of kids in need in depressed areas
2. Angels group the kids into 2 different age groups
3. Angels look for a place to gather with all those kids -with their parents- , in the largest number possible
4. Angels deliver one 2 hour session on Entrepreneurship every week to the kids - New groups every week are a priority -
5. Angels find 2 additional Angels to be responsible for and they onboard and train them to do the same.
About the 2 hour workshop
The purpose of the 2 hour sessions is to inspire the kids become entrepreneurs using easily accessible resources, with the support of their parents. These high energy sessions include music, dancing, games, physical activities and storytelling.
