Moneythink Seed GrantsThis fund gives some of our brightest students a chance to show their potential as leaders, visionaries, and entrepreneurs by giving them a small amount of capital to take their venture to the next level. We award grants of $2000 to the top two teams at the Moneythink Youth Entrepreneurs Conference, a business pitch competition showcasing the ventures that our students from throughout the region have developed over the year. The winning students are assigned undergraduate mentor support teams, who work closely with them to help push the venture forward, provide key guidance, and approve expenses. |

Goal-Setting JournalsAll of our programs are dependent on working with students to help them set challenging and realistic goals that will ignite their passions and ambition. A big part of this is brainstorming, writing, and most importantly, tracking their progress. We want to provide students with quality journals that are tailored to help them accomplish their goals, complete with calendars, milestone charts, and re-evaluation prompts. Everyone who has kept a journal knows that caring about the book one writes in is key to setting the right mood. We’d like to deliver the same experience to students. |

Fieldtrips and ExternshipsA big part of Moneythink’s program is driving the lessons we teach in the classroom home with real world examples. One of the best ways to do this is by taking students out of the school into banks, trading floors, and the offices of innovative companies to get a taste of how it works in the real world. Motivated students can even apply to our externship program, where they shadow professionals at top firms like Morningstar. Help us cover transportation, administrative, and lunch costs for these trips. $250 can can introduce a class to a whole new world. |

Mentor TrainingWe pride ourselves in the quality of our mentors, who go through a rigorous ten week training process before being admitted to a class. This includes discussion with experts, lesson planning assignments, and mock teaching. Help us make our mentors even better. $75 puts one mentor through training. |
