Young Entrepreneurs Academy
At Living Adventure, we believe the next generation holds the power to transform their communities. The Young Entrepreneurs Academy (YEA) gives students ages 5–25 the tools, confidence, and experiences they need to dream big, start small, and build something real.
The DREAM Framework
YEA is more than a class—it’s a movement. Students learn how to:
-
Discover their ideas and turn passions into real-world business opportunities.
-
Risk responsibly by testing ideas in safe, supportive environments.
-
Pursue Excellence in every detail, from product design to customer service.
-
Take Action by launching ventures and serving real customers.
-
Manage Money wisely, learning how to budget, price, and grow sustainably.
Each step of the journey is grounded in our D.R.E.A.M. framework (Discover, Risk Responsibly, Excellence, Action, Money).
Hands-on
Students don’t just talk about entrepreneurship—they practice it through hands-on projects, mentorship from local business leaders, and opportunities like the Young Entrepreneurs Showcase, where they present and sell their products to the community.
YEA equips young people with more than business skills—it develops character, leadership, and vision. Whether they grow up to be entrepreneurs, teachers, builders, or leaders in their communities, they carry with them the mindset that life is an adventure worth owning.
Join the movement. The Young Entrepreneurs Academy is where tomorrow’s leaders start today.
Our Space
The Elevate Center is a collaborative project between Living Adventure and Elevate Lives. We purchased an elementary school that our town had closed and transformed into a shared space where families can find the tools to move from surviving to thriving. Our makers space, studio, commercial kitchens and fine arts stage are located in the building where students can access tools and network with professionals who are ready to help.
