Youth Entrepreneur Institute (YEI) empowers at-risk youth in Washington D.C.'s East of the River communities through entrepreneurship, STEM, and arts education. Our mission is to break the cycle of poverty and crime by teaching the value of hard work and fostering entrepreneurial mindsets.
YEI’s programs, including the "Smart Hustle" initiative, instill these values and help youth develop the skills they need to create their own businesses and lead youth-led economies. We emphasize creativity and innovation, showing youth that they can succeed through art and entrepreneurship.
Join us in supporting YEI's mission to empower youth, tap into their potential, and put poverty out of business through art and innovation.
Join us as we help our youth make safe decisions, and educate them about the dangers of opioid use, and equip them with strategies for prevention!
