Making a difference for the youths: one youth at a time! Believe and Inspire’s mission is to empower under-served youths to learn more about financial literacy, career and internship preparation, and other life skills to help them succeed long-term. Believe and Inspire is a non-profit organization that helps youth (ages 16-24) overcome obstacles, prepare for the workforce, and become self-sufficient. In 2014, Believe and Inspire started offering financial literacy workshops in Queens, NY by working with local communities, assisting, and advising youths about understanding financial literacy, searching for jobs, and going back to college. Then in 2018, the Believe and Inspire team formed a 501(c)(3) to start offering our programs on a more consistent, long-term basis. When the covid-19 virus struck in early 2020, Believe & Inspire took their classes online and have seen a greater demand for the classes. The programs expanded to not only youths in foster care but youths that were in dire need of their services. They now serve youths from over 15 high schools in the New York City area and greater New York area. Believe & Inspire now has evolved in many ways. They now run three organized programs in Financial Literacy, Internship Preparation so that youths can enter the workforce with more confidence and skills and a College Preparation course to help them understand the process of applying and getting into college. Believe & Inspire is truly grateful for the amazing team and teachers that help the youths they serve to overcome obstacles and prepare for excellence.
