by Jr. Journalist Keyona (8th grade) & Kamia Gray (7th grade) Las Vegas, NV
On April 26th from 11am-3pm, Indian Voices Junior Journalists attended the Youthpreneur Market at Walnut Recreational Center in North Las Vegas, Nevada. The event was sponsored by Wealth Wave and The Money Books. Hostesses Ann McDowell (Wealth Wave) and Kata Carrillo (The Money Books) brought together young entrepreneurs located throughout Clark County to help educate them on the importance of finance.
The youth entrepreneurs that attended were Vegas Chills and Thrills, Erica’s Accessories, Snack King, Star’s Boli Factory, and the Junior Journalists of Indian Voices. Each entrepreneur set up a table and spotlighted what it was they did for their small business. We all patronized each other, enjoyed a nice breakfast and lunch, and learned about finance. The Junior Journalists earned a $500 scholarship toward college once they graduate high school for their attendance at this event.
It was a great afternoon!
