Social Venture Fund

The Social Venture  Fund is an important part of the TeachingKidsBusiness.com's strategy.

TeachingKidsBusiness.com is a privately funded, social venture that benefits thousand of kids internationally. We are reaching out to kids to provide kids with the tools, experience and community support required, to prepare for and develop business skills and career opportunities at an early age. 

Our Social Venture Fund is intended to engage adults and kids to help provide this  wonderful experience to other kids and to ensure that less privileged kids have access to our programming.  It is not all about money, but about helping other people or in this case about kids-helping-kids.

We have not registered as a charity as it is our belief that a social venture can do the work of a charity and that a corporation is the most appropriate entity to teach business and effectively provide this social mission.  We are aware that many charities are not effective in returning a high percentage of the funding to their cause. In our social venture, 100% of the funding goes to the cause of teaching kids business.

The TeachingKidsBusiness.com  "Social Venture Fund" is being created with the following goals in mind:

  • Encourage people in general to talk to kids about their futures, help kids develop business skills and gain business experience.
  • Encourage kids to help other kids by using our programming and providing our resources to other kids..

  • Encourage kids to participate in and contribute to charity at an early age.

  • Create awareness and opportunities for kids in business and early career development.

  • Provide leadership in philanthropic activities in conjunction with business for our future business leaders .

  • Provide kids around the world with the opportunity to benefit from the tools and experiences of TeachingKidsBusiness.com,  with the assistance of  our Social Venture Fund.

Sources of Funding:

Please note that we do not accept advertising on our site, we have no corporate sponsors selling to kids and we have not used any government money to develop programming or maintain our site.  

We believe that to effectively teach kids business we need to operate like a business but in a responsible way. We are very careful how kids interact with our business. 

Therefore, to fund our business we are embarking on the following initiatives:

  • We have created The Kids' Guide To Business  to help kids learn about business. Proceeds from this e-book will be used to further develop our website.

  • As we develop the commercial venture of  KidsE-Marketplace, we will ensure that charity giving is an important part of the kids' business strategies. We will facilitate charitable contributions from the kid's marketplace to support TeachingKidsBusiness.com.

  • Fundraising programs

  • We are working on a song idea and if commercialized,  proceeds will go to support  TeachingKidsBusiness.com and kid's charities of choice.

  • Our Kids-As-Angels Program is positioned to contribute 10% of the funding raised in www.kidse-marketplace.com toward the development of our site.

  • The founder of TeachingKidsBusiness.com continues to generously support the site.

  • We welcome you to donate to this social venture through our PayPal link.

  • $U.S. Contribution
    $CDN Contributions

The world will be a better place when we all, including kids, participate in philanthropic activities!
