Volunteer Opportunity


Belk College Students-please see the call for volunteers copied below.  If you have any questions or are interested please contact Josh Geyer at: jgeyer31@gmail.com.



My name is Josh Geyer and I am the program director for Inspiring Athletes & Academics (IAA). IAA provides free tutoring, career development, and athletic training to at-risk youth in the Charlotte area. We have created a summer “Entrepreneurship Program” to help our at-risk youth develop entrepreneurial ideas and to provide steps to take in the entrepreneurial journey. 

I was inquiring to see if you had a students who would like to volunteer and teach the students the basics of entrepreneurship. The youth will come up with one business idea and by the end of the summer launch the business. I would like students to talk to the youth about writing a basic business plan, marketing, money management, etc…

There are many studies that suggest that the environment you grow up in effects who you become. We would like to create an environment that encourages and nurtures entrepreneurship. As in all of our programs, kids are given opportunities for valuable experiences to hopefully shape their futures

If you have any students who are interested? Please feel free to have them contact me. Here are the links to our social media pages with a new promotional video on our Facebook page.


Thank you for your time,

Josh
