National Foundation for Teaching Entrepreneurship, Inc.

 

An international organization called National Foundation for Teaching Entrepreneurship, Inc. (NFTE) encourages “low-income and at-risk young people to do the world of business and entrepreneurship by teaching them how to develop and operate their own legitimate small business.” 

 

This program provides a “hands-on entrepreneurship and business ownership curriculum” for students that develop their academic and life skills.  They strengthen their math, read, writing, critical thinking, teamwork, planning, organization, communication, and decision-making skills.   

 

Now in its thirteenth year of existence, NFTE is one of many extensions that future entrepreneurs may turn to when desiring to learn and/or develop their life skills.  For further information, feel free to visit their official website (http://www.nfte.com).
