MISSION - WHAT WE DO
AMBITION is a nonprofit entrepreneurial program for disadvantaged youth. Its mission is to reframe their potential and to provide students with the support, access and resources necessary to reach their goals.
SERVICES - HOW WE DO IT
AMBITION fosters innovation, solution-driven thinking, confidence and professional work ethic. Collaborative, hands-on participation and powerful, consistent connections with business leaders and special guests are at the heart of this mentor-driven program. High school students are exposed to numerous aspects of running a business including strategic planning, project management, conflict resolution, time management, research, consumer demographics, product development, marketing and branding. The AMBITION students cultivate a strong work ethic through teamwork, respectful and healthy competition, interpersonal skills, self-discipline, accountability and compromise. Through a multitude of problem-solving endeavors, the AMBITION journey validates that with determination, self-discipline and hard work, one can live a life without limitations. AMBITION’s signature exercise YOU DON’T KNOW ABOUT ME encourages students to own their lived experience and embrace #PowerNotPity. When we tackle our problems with a strong voice and a focused trajectory, they are no longer burdens to be pitied, but tools we can use to empower ourselves. This exercise sets a solid foundation for an entrepreneurial curriculum that instills the confidence students will need for future success. Grounded in entrepreneurship, AMBITION's curriculum centers on providing in-depth exposure to numerous aspects of running a business, including strategic planning, project management, conflict resolution, time management, research, consumer demographics, product development, marketing and branding. Students put these lessons into practice through AMBITION’s e-commerce component, The Ultimate Tease (TUT). In addition to scholarships & brand ambassadorships, TUT awards internships in Marketing & Operations to three to five students annually based on successful resume submission, application process and interview(s). Collaborative in-class work is supplemented by workshops with expert mentors and visits from high profile, inspirational guest speakers. In addition to scholarships & brand ambassadorships, TUT also awards internships in Marketing & Operations to three to five students each summer, based on successful resume submission, application process and interview(s)
