What problem would you like to solve?

Educational opportunities and teachings when it comes to jobs and money

Why is it important to solve? Why is it relevant for the community?

These are life skills that we need to have and we have to do better in educating the future generations and break these curses about debt

What idea do you have to address the problem?

Require courses in school for young adults in schools that teach them about these topics

Who would that help?

People who want jobs and don’t have people/mentors that they can rely on to help them with filing out résumé’s/tax returns/cover letters

What NYC borough would benefit from your idea?

Brooklyn
