Scientific Minds of America (SMOA) is a 501(c)(3) youth-led organization created to combat education inequality. We provide free services for all students such as tutoring, educational camps, and events. We are hosting our free Young Entrepreneurs camp for kids from grades 4-7, which will be taught by Hunter College High School and Stuyvesant students.

The camp will cover four key aspects of entrepreneurship:
Financial Literacy/Management: Through practical lessons and interactive activities that include topics such as creating budget plans and different types of expenses, students will gain or hone their knowledge on money management
Investing: In this lesson, students will learn about the importance of investing, types of investments, and take a look at stock picking with reference to big companies like Apple
Entrepreneurship: Our objective is to foster entrepreneurial spirit among students by leading and helping them through the product development process
Business Pitch: As a way to boost confidence and improve presentation skills, we will give them the opportunity to present to a panel of adjudicators
Once all the pitches have been listened to and commented on, the students with the top three presentations/products will be awarded a 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place award certificate. All participants will receive a certificate of completion.
